This module works similarly to the previous 8×8 Dot Matrix Display with an SPI interface, but it uses a different driver chip and a different communication interface.
The 16×8 Dot Matrix Display module functions similarly to the 8×8 Dot Matrix Display but offers twice the display size, allowing for larger or more detailed visual outputs.
A Dot Matrix Display is a two-dimensional array of LEDs that can be used to display characters, icons, or symbols.
This module works similarly to the 0.96-inch OLED display, but it uses a different driver chip. It provides a larger display with a 1.3-inch diagonal dimension, while maintaining the same resolution of 128×64 pixels.
OLED stands for Organic Light Emitting Diode. An OLED display is self-illuminated, meaning it does not require a backlight since each pixel emits its own light. This results in better contrast, thinner design, and lower power consumption compared to traditional LCDs.
