- Sun Apr 19, 2015 11:12 am #15037 I'm using esp12 modules and some old PICs I had laying around, great fun.

What are folks using for I2C graphics displays? I guess same question for SPI (and port expanders?). There seem to be a ton of choices, just wondering what's popular. I tried one of those tiny ssd1306 .96" i2c displays, very cool, just a bit too small. Maybe something 2-3 times bigger.

Thanks.

As I know, this OLED screen can be bigger (1,3" or larger, not sure).

- Sun Apr 19, 2015 1:38 pm #15049 There is a great display from Digole that I LOVE. It is full color OLED and has its own controller. This means you can talk i2c, spi or serial to it. you can also store fonts and graphics on the eeprom of the display so you don't have to wast program space for those resources.

Check it out: http://www.digole.com/index.php?productID=859
