WaveShare 1.5inch RGB OLED Display 128x128 65K SPI SSD1351

1.5 inch RGB OLED display for embedded projects

This 1.5 inch RGB OLED module delivers a 128x128 pixel panel with 65K colour depth for clear, colourful image rendering. It is designed for makers and engineers adding compact visual output to Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino or STM32 based projects. The SSD1351 driver handles the display control through a selectable SPI interface. Development resources and manuals with example code are included to accelerate integration.

128x128 resolution with 65K colour headroom

The 128x128 pixel grid provides sufficient resolution for icons, graphs, simple animations and text in embedded interfaces. The 65K colour palette allows smooth gradients and distinct colour coding for status indicators or UI elements. The 1.5 inch diagonal keeps the physical footprint small, limiting the amount of detailed information that can be shown at a readable size. Complex, high-density layouts or photographic images will exceed the practical display area.

SPI interface selectable by onboard resistor

The module supports both 4-wire and 3-wire SPI communication, configured by changing an onboard resistor to suit the host controller’s pin count or speed requirements. This flexibility simplifies wiring for different microcontroller platforms without needing separate hardware. The small board size implies minimal mounting provisions, so integration typically requires a custom bracket or direct PCB soldering. The included examples demonstrate straightforward initialisation for common development boards.
