One thing to understand is that not all sunlight readable digital signage is created equal. It can vary widely based on the technology used. To make sure that you&#;re getting the most out of your sunlight readable monitor, contact Sun Vision Display. Our reflective LCD technology operates in a wide range of temperatures, uses up to 95% less power than high-brightness LCDs, reduces blue-light emissions, and outlasts traditional LED or LCD displays. Without a backlight there&#;s no risk of burnout or overheating. This means that you&#;ll be able to utilize the same display monitor for years without needing repairs or replacement. They&#;re great for applications in public spaces, transportation, food and entertainment, tourism, sports and recreation, retail, and more. We turn sunlight into a solution. If you&#;re interested in adding commercial digital signage to your marketing efforts, contact the professionals at Sun Vision Display today.

Sunlight readable graphical display for ESP32 ...

Hello All.

So, both displays work now. I kept the wiring just to make sure but on Nano 33 IoT the displays work without any resistors on the 3.3v.

The 256x96 works with the constructors for 256x160, just offset the screen downwards.
If the first line of text is size 8, start the line at 73:

u8g2.drawStr(0,73,"Hello World!");

The main thing to remember is that the contrast for these constructors is different.

U8G2_ST_JLX_F_HW_I2C u8g2(U8G2_R0, /* reset=*/ U8X8_PIN_NONE);

~Contrast on both displays works at 150 for 256x96 and 178 for 256x160 (at least in my case).

I would like to propose when starting new displays to actually test with the " ContrastTest.ino" from

https://github.com/olikraus/u8g2/blob/master/sys/arduino/u8g2_page_buffer/ContrastTest/ContrastTest.ino

The ContrastTest will move the contrast across all the range and all the active area of the screen so it is easy to see if it works or not.

The current consumption for the displays is:

Display Current Backlight 256x160 23.5mA Yes 256x160 10.9mA Yes with 47R 256x160 2.6mA No 256x96 13.9mA Yes 256x96 7.6mA Yes with 47R 256x96 1.06m No

Easily readable in intense light. Tested with a work light which is probably brighter than the sun in UK at this time of the year.

Ah, so these modules have the option to switch between SPI/I2C/Parallel through soldering the resistors in different configurations? neat

When you select them in the listing from aliexpress, you get to chose the voltage and protocol. They send the screens as you request. Very well packed.
I presume that there is nothing else to do except changing the resistors (different wiring of course)
