This project demonstrates interfacing a 128Γ64 OLED display (SSD1306) with the STM32F446RE microcontroller using pure register-level programming. This guide will help you understand how to set up and run the software, even if you have no programming background.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
- Operating System: Windows or macOS.
- Development Environment: STM32CubeIDE installed on your machine. You can download it from STMicroelectronics.
- USB to Serial Adapter: This will help you connect the STM32F446RE to your computer for programming.
- Hardware: STM32F446RE Nucleo board and a 128Γ64 OLED display.
-
Connect the OLED Display:
- Use the I2C pins on the STM32F446RE to wire the OLED display.
- Ensure the correct connections based on your setup guides.
-
Power the Board:
- Connect the Nucleo board to a power source via USB.
-
Install STM32CubeIDE:
- Follow the installer instructions specific to your operating system.
