This serial OLED 16 x 2 kit AXE133Y is a budget-conscious serial OLED module that features a 16 x 2 yellow on black alphanumeric display, allowing the visual display of user instructions, sensor reading, etc. of PICAXE microcontroller projects. Connection is via a simple 1-wire serial interface. The included PICAXE-18M2 is fitted on to a small serial interface PCB and is pre-programmed with the open source AXE133 firmware that allows the microcontroller to act as a 'slave' serial driver for the OLED display. This allows the main project to display text on the OLED via simple 'Serout' commands.
The control code that is used in this kit is identical to that used in the AXE033 module, enabling the kit to be used as an alternative to the AXE033. The 18M2 microcontroller can also be reprogrammed, e.g. to change the power-up welcome message. The kit is self-assembly and requires some simple soldering.
