1.12 Mono OLED (128x128, white/black) Breakout

This crisp 1.12″ monochrome OLED breakout features a 128×128 pixel white-on-black display, ideal for adding graphing, readouts, and basic icons to your project. OLEDs deliver excellent contrast and brightness, and this compact module fits easily into space-constrained builds.

The breakout connects to your Raspberry Pi's GPIO header via the included right-angle female header — just solder and plug in. It also works with Arduino over I2C, and is compatible with Pimoroni's Breakout Garden HAT for tool-free slot-in use.

Key Features

  • 1.12″ OLED Display – 128×128 pixels, monochrome white on black
  • 20 × 20 mm Active Area – Compact yet readable
  • I2C Interface – Default address 0x3C, changeable to 0x3D by cutting a trace
  • 3.3V and 5V Compatible – Works with Raspberry Pi and Arduino
  • Reverse Polarity Protection – Safeguards against incorrect wiring
  • Breakout Garden Compatible – Slot-in use with Pimoroni Breakout Garden HAT

Getting Started

Solder the right-angle female header and connect to the bottom-left 5 pins on your Pi's GPIO header (pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9). Use the Luma OLED Python library to drive the display.
