I'm working to use of this OLED but I don't know why doesn't it work!? the Schematic of adaptor is this:

Schematich

and this is assembeled project on breadboard:

when I check out the pins of SPI of microcontroller(by Logic Analyzer - saleae), I see these:

and my Codes is this:

I used the charge-pump. then the power of OLED is:

  • 4volt to Vbat
  • 3volt to Vdd

I have used the SPI(4 wire mode. for more information you can see the datasheet and command files)

in your opinion, what's the problem?

Interfacing to displays is hard work. Without spending hours looking at your list I won't figure it out from here. In order of importance

  1. Double check voltages.

  2. Quadruple check the schematic and connections.

  3. Use known good code when possible.

  4. If code can't be found, Do one step and a time.

  5. Either way (#3 or #4) Start with reading a value from the display, then proceed to the next step, set bias, etc.

Once every i is dotted, and every t crossed, they usually work.

  • \$\begingroup\$ +1 for help. I will find a known good code and check it on my OLED. some famous web-sites use I2C interface(like Adafruit). \$\endgroup\$
