  • I asked myself if there is a library for programming the avr328 to control the SSD OLED 1306 with i2c.
  • Yes there is one, or there are maybe some more.
  • so today I randomly picked one library and tried to run it:

https://github.com/Matiasus/SSD1306




Hardware Setup

  • check the datasheet of arduino
  • check the connection of OLED
  • connect scl and sda and use 2 pull up resistors and gnd and vin
  • connect the my smart usb to the icsp = in circuit serial programming - pin
  • the nose is directed inside the arduino
  • connect the arduino board with USB


Software Setup

  • Goto: https://github.com/Matiasus/SSD1306
  • clone the repository
  • open it with visual studio code

the author gives two hints depending of what OLED you are using you have to change following lines:

  • 128x64 version
  • command argument SSD1306_SET_MUX_RATIO set to 0x3F (ssd1306.c)
  • command argument SSD1306_COM_PIN_CONF set to 0x12 (ssd1306.c)
  • END_PAGE_ADDR set to 7 (ssd1306.h)
  • 128x32 version
  • command argument SSD1306_SET_MUX_RATIO set to 0x1F (ssd1306.c)
  • command argument SSD1306_COM_PIN_CONF set to 0x02 (ssd1306.c)
  • END_PAGE_ADDR set to 3 (ssd1306.h)


  • In the make file change following line to:

# AVRDUDE PROGRAMMER

AVRDUDE_PROG = stk500

  • open a terminal and press make
  • a hex file will be created
  • for me make flash didnt work but you can do it of course or use for example avrdudess :
