• 1.7" Smart 160x128 pixel resolution with 65K true to life colors
• No backlighting with near 180° viewing angle
• Powered by the 4D-LABS GOLDELOX-SGC processor
• Compatible with CB-160-G1 Carrier Board (not included)
The 4D Systems 1.7" Smart OLED Display Module (SGC) is a compact and cost effective all in one ‘SMART' display module using the latest state of the art Passive Matrix OLED (PMOLED) technology with an embedded GOLDELO-SGC graphics processor that delivers 'stand-alone' functionality to any project. The module is designed to operate under two different software platforms:
4DGL (4D Graphics Language) platform:
4DGL is a graphics oriented language allowing the developer to write applications in high level language (syntax similar to popular languages such as BASIC, C, Pascal, etc.) and run it directly on the GOLDELOX-SGC processor embedded in the µOLED-160-G1 module.
The rich set of built in library functions and the high level syntax allows the user to take complete control of all available hardware resources such as the Serial Port, Graphics Display, micro-SD card, I/O pins, etc. This eliminates the need for an external host micro-controller to drive the µOLED-160-G1 module via serial commands. It provides the user complete independence to quickly develop powerful applications.
Serial Command platform:
The serial command platform allows the µOLED-160-G1 module to be used as slave device connected to an external host. The host can be any controller such as a PIC, AVR, ARM, STAMP, etc. or even a PC where all screen related functions are sent using a simple protocol via the serial interface. Serial commands may comprise of a single byte or multiple bytes of data depending on the command type. The serial platform allows users to develop their application using their favorite microcontroller and software development tools.
System Requirements:
• PC with Windows XP or Vista operating system. You will also need the .NET Framework available from the Microsoft website if it's not already installed on your system.
• µUSB-MB5 or the µUSB-CE5. These USB to Serial converter modules are essential hardware tools for programming the GOLDELOX-GFX2 processor, with 4DGL or Serial platform PmmC firmware files, via its serial port. These modules are also used for downloading 4DGL user application code from the PC into the GOLDELOX-SGC. You will need to install the appropriate drivers onto your system. The drivers can be found in the µUSB-MB5 or the µUSB-CE5 product pages.
Features:
• 160 x 128 resolution, 65K true to life colors, PMOLED screens
• 1.7” diagonal size, 52 x 32 x 6.3mm. Active Area: 33.6mm x 27mm
• No backlighting with near 180° viewing angle
• Easy 5 pin interface to any host device: VCC, TX, RX, GND, RESET
• Voltage supply from 3.6V to 6.0V, current @40mA nominal when using a 5.0V supply
• Serial RS-232 (0V to 3.3V) with auto-baud feature (300 to 256K baud). Rx line has built in series current limit resistor and a pull-up resistor
• Powered by the 4D Labs GOLDELOX processor (also available as separate OEM IC for volume users).
• 2 different operating platforms; the Serial Command platform (factory default) or the 4DGL (4D Graphics Language) platform.
• Optional USB to Serial interface via the 4D micro-USB (µUSB-MB5 or µUSB-CE5) modules.
• On-board micro-SD (µSD) memory card adaptor for storing of icons, images, animations, etc. 64Mb to 2Gig µSD memory cards can be purchased separately.
• Rich set of built in graphics commands and functions.
Note: PmmC or 4DGL programming should only be carried out using any one of the 4D Programming modules (4D Programming Cable, uUSB-MB5, uUSB-CE5). Any malfunction because of custom or third party USB to Serial converters or Serial (RS232) to Serial (TTL) level converters will void the warranty.
