This is an example connection and code for Arduino MKR boards

  • Install U8g2 library
  • If sketch wont compile because of <Wire.h> is missing, add it then remove include later. It is not needed but takes some space.
  • At max brightness it consumes ~60mA
#include <Arduino.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <U8g2lib.h>

NOTABLE PROBLEMS WITH THIS DISPLAY:
It doesnt handle full screen fill well
It makes noise
