What is an OLED?

An OLED is a light emitting diode in

which organic layers are
responsible for light emission.
 THE BASIC PRINCIPAL
Electroluminescence is a process in which a material emits light in
response to electrical field applied across it.

 How do OLED emit light?

• A voltage is applied across the

anode and cathode.
• Current flows from cathode to anode
through the organic layer.
• Electrons are removed from
conductive layer leaving holes
• Holes jump in to emissive layer.
• Electron and holes combine and
emit light.
 Types of OLEDs?

 Active-matrix OLEDs

❏ Passive matrix OLEDs

 Active-matrix OLEDs
• It employs active matrix in addressing pixels and uses a special type of thin
film technology.

• It is a display technology used in mobile devices, digital cameras,

media players and television.

• It consumes less power than Passive matrix OLEDs.

 Passive-matrix OLEDs
• It refers to the arrangement of the driving electrodes in the OLED display .

• There is an array of horizontal and vertical conductors with the OLED

material between them.

• Cheaper arrangement then active-matrix OLEDs.

 Advantages of OLEDs
1. Provides wider viewing angle(180 degrees).

2. Flexible

3. High brightness and contrast.

4. Fast response time.

 Disadvantages of OLEDs

1. Short lifespan.

2. Costly as compared to LCD.

3. They are more prone to moisture damage.

 Applications of OLEDs

Television Keyboards

Laptops Mobiles
 CONCLUSION
Today we can summarize the situation of OLEDs displays as they have demonstrated
unrivalled and excellent performance in terms of image quality(contrast, colour etc).
Module-2
(Practical Project)
 AIM

To show display on OLED display screen with the help of

ARDUINO BOARD and ARDUINO IDE software.
 Components Required

Jumper Wires Arduino Uno board

128X64 Bread board

 STEPS TO FOLLOW

STEP-1Fix the OLED display

screen on breadboard
and connect it with
Arduino UNO board.
 CONNECTIONS

OLED screen Arduino board

VCC(power supply for display) 5V

GND(ground) GND

SDA(Serial data line) A4

SCK(Serial clock line) A5
Step-2 Connect Arduino with laptop by official Arduino
USB cable and install Arduino IDE software.

Data in port
STEP-3 In IDE software install library <Adafruit-SSD1306.h>.
Then write the code in arduino programming language which is called
sketch.

After coding, click on tools and select arduino uno and select the
port.

At last upload the code.
