Hi all. I'm about to begin playing with a small home automation project that uses NKK OLED Smart Switches to control various lights on my Philips Hue system.
I have just purchased a couple NKK ISC15ANP4 smart switches to get the ball rolling. I'm wondering if any members have experience working with these switches and if they can be directly wired into an arduino and a 12vdc power supply? I've seen a few websites mention custom boards and the requirement of using an NKK development kit to program the images onto the displays.
I'm starting to prototype and test this with the arduino but the pins on the switch and optional socket plate are tiny gold pins - not compatible with breadboard jumper wires. I'm not sure how these are named, so please forgive my ignorance. Is there a way to adapt these pins to a larger diameter so jumper cables will fit? Regardless of a yes or no, at least I'll learn something new!
Everything you need to know about the hardware is in the data sheet. The switch is meant to be soldered to a PCB with the correct pad placement.
According to the data sheet, optional sockets can be purchased from the manufacturer, which allow for replacements, but those are also intended to be soldered onto a PCB.
