OLED Displays are slow!

We have been prototyping an Arduino based Electronic Speed Controller and planned to include a 0.96″ OLED display. Tests on an Arduino UNO, clocked at 16 MHz, have shown that this display could best be described as sluggish! Even using SPI, printing out 3 lines of text results in a loop cycle time of 15 Hz. Quelle horreur! This prompted us to investigate further to understand the bottlenecks, SPI vs I2C speed, and whether there were any work arounds. #arduino #oled #SSD1306 #DFR0650 #SPIvsI2C
