Introduction

DisplayIO driver for SSD1306 monochrome displays. DisplayIO drivers enable terminal output

For the framebuf based driver see Adafruit CircuitPython SSD1306.

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Adafruit CircuitPython

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-displayio-ssd1306

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-displayio-ssd1306

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-displayio-ssd1306

Usage Example

import board
import displayio
import adafruit_displayio_ssd1306
import busio

displayio.release_displays()

# This pinout works on a Metro and may need to be altered for other boards.
spi = busio.SPI(board.SCL, board.SDA)
tft_cs = board.D9
tft_dc = board.D8
tft_reset = board.D7

display_bus = displayio.FourWire(spi, command=tft_dc, chip_select=tft_cs, reset=tft_reset, baudrate=1000000)
display = adafruit_displayio_ssd1306.SSD1306(display_bus, width=128, height=64)
