NEW PRODUCT - OLED Shield LCD Adapter

After the success of our 128x128 Pixel OLED Module, customers have been asking us for easier and faster ways to connect it to our Freetronics Eleven, EtherTen, Arduino Uno and compatible boards to make prototyping easier and without soldering permanently to the board. So we've delivered, and proud to announce our new OLED Shield LCD Adapter:

The adaptor board includes a 15cm ribbon cable to run between the OLED display and the shield, which still has plenty of prototyping space to add your own circuit. Furthermore we've added a dual-axis analogue thumb joystick - which allows for new Arduino-based gaming fun or fluid user interfaces. Finally the OLED can be mounted off the shield with the included cable - giving you more prototyping space, or on the shield as shown below:

For more information, our Getting Started guide and to order, please visit the product page. And for more, we're on twitter and Google+, so follow us for news and product updates as well.

So have you seen our OLED display? It's the new 128x128 pixel OLED Module. With a diagonal size of 1.5" and 16,384 colours to select from, so almost anything is possible. Furthermore there's a microSD card socket, and removable tabs on each side which can hold LEDs and buttons:

And using the module is made simple - we have tutorials and drivers for both the Arduino and Raspberry Pi platforms - great for experimenters or those who use both systems. Furthermore, check out the forum where members are already creating modified drivers to rapidly increase the display speed. For more information including our Quickstart guides - and of course to order - visit the OLED Module product page
