Microchip has just announced the PIC18-Q20 family of 8-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) that feature larger program and data spaces, an I2C peripheral block and one or two I3C peripheral blocks, very low pin counts, and packages as small as 3x3 mm. These devices are available in 14- and 20-pin packages with 16 to 64 Kbytes of…
Build a Tiny OLED Display Subsystem 4 hours ago SSD1306 Out on a Cheap Date We live in an era where huge display screens are commonplace. But embedded systems often demand small displays, hopefully with low-overhead control electronics. In this project article, Jeff endeavors to design and build a low-cost 128×64 OLED display subsystem using an 8-bit MCU and I2C interfacing. Topics Discussed What are the choices in small displays How to craft a stripped down character scheme How to implement the display modes How to use UART interfacing and I2C Tech Used Microchip Technology PIC16F18313 MCU...
