Each pixel can be set with 16-bits of resolution for a large range of colors. Because the display uses OLEDs, there is no backlight, and the contrast is very high (black is really black). Adafruit picked this display for its excellent color, this is the nicest mini OLED we could find!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis OLED uses the SSD1351 driver chip, which manages the display. You can talk to the driver chip using 4-wire write-only SPI (clock, data, chip select, data\/command and an optional reset pin). Included on the fully assembled breakout is the OLED display and a small boost converter (required for providing 12V to the OLED) and a microSD card holder. This design includes built-in logic level shifting so you can use it with 3-5VDC power and logic levels. Our example code shows how to read a bitmap from the uSD card and display it all via SPI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that OLED displays are made of hundreds of...OLEDs! That means each pixel is a little organic LED, and if its kept on for over 1000 hours it'll start to dim. If you want to keep the display uniformly bright, please turn off the display (set the pixels off) when it isn't needed to keep them from dimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis display breakout also features an \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/eyespi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e18-pin \"EYESPI\" standard FPC connector\u003c\/a\u003e with flip-top connector.
