TeensyView Hookup Guide

Introduction

The TeensyView is an SSD1306 128x32 OLED screen breakout that matches the Teensy 3 form factor. It's great for displaying debug information and visualizing data on a Teensy, and it is compatible with the LC, 3.1, 3.2, 3.5, 3.6, Audio Board, Prop Shield, Prop Shield LC and XBee Adapter.

This guide shows how to connect the TeensyView to various Teensy-related products, then shows some examples with a library reference. The SSD1306 driver is quite popular and has a lot of support behind it. The TeensyView Arduino Library is like the Micro OLED Breakout's and the MicroView's libraries, so expect the same functions to work, just tuned for the Teensy and conveniently packaged.

Hardware Overview and Assembly

The hardware comes as a headerless PCB with OLED soldered on. There are jumpers on one side to configure how the OLED communicates with the attached Teensy. You'll need to set the jumpers, solder the TeensyView to the Teensy or to headers, then affix the OLED.

This section instructs the use of male headers on the TeensyView, with stackable headers on the Teensy.

1. The TeensyView has two available connections for the OLED communication lines, to allow compatibility with various boards. One side (factory configuration/'Standard') is all connected by copper jumpers, with the 'Alternate' side available to reconfigure the connections.

   Use this table to determine which pins to use for the TeensyView, or leave them set by copper to the standard pins if no other resources are in use.

   Jumper	Default Copper Jumpers (Standard)	Audio Board Compatible (Alternate)	Prop Shield Compatible
   RST	15	2	15 (Std.)
   D/C	5	21	21 (Alt.)
   CS	10	20	20 (Alt.)
   SCLK	13	14	13 (Std.)
   DATA	11	7	11 (Std.)

2. If necessary, carefully cut the copper jumper on the board and apply solder to reroute the signal.

   
   Cutting the copper traces: Make two cuts, one on each end of the copper link, then remove the excess copper with a slight twist of the knife. Solder connections are not shown here, but if you remove the copper link you will need to apply a solder jump between two of the pads of the jumper!

3. Separate two 14-pin lengths of straight male header and fit them into the breadboard, then set the PCB onto them with the jumpers facing up and the LCD facing down. The LCD will fold over and cover the jumpers.

   
   Notice that the OLED is soldered to the back side and folds around the edge of the PCB, covering the selection jumpers. This is so the jumpers can still be accessed if the TeensyView is more permanently attached to a Teensy.

4. Next, solder the headers onto the TeensyView using a flux core solder. The silkscreen rings denote pins that are electrically connected to the TeensyView circuitry. You can choose to either solder all pins, for better mechanical stability, or just the connected pins, if you foresee removal of the pins in the future. This board is assumed to be the top of a stack and may not need all of the Teensy's signals passing through.

   
   Attaching the straight headers to the Teensy using a breadboard.
   Note: There are 12x silkscreen rings highlighted. You will only be using 5x of the standard pins and 2x for power on the Teensy as shown earlier in the table of the jumpers. 5x of the remaining pins are the alternate pin connections.

5. Now that the TeensyView has headers, it can be used to help keep the Teensy Stackable Headers in place for assembly. Put the 6 long and two 13 long headers onto the TeensyView, then place the Teensy on and apply solder.

   Attaching the Teensy Header Kit

6. If you've decided to only solder the electrically connected pins, now's a good time to pull the spare pins. Hold the TeensyView firmly with one hand and give a steady pull with pliers or wire strippers. To double check, there should only be pins left in the holes with silkscreen rings.

   
   Pulling the pins

7. Apply the screen using the double-sided foam. It's best to start with little pieces until you're sure of the configuration you would like. Visualize how the foam will be divided or draw on it with a pen. Then use your scissors to cut off strips, and subdivide from there.

   A couple small pieces go a long way to keep it in place, while a large piece can keep it there on a more permanent basis. Reasons to remove the screen may be to adjust left-right justification (to match a chassis cutout, for example) or to change the configuration of the pins. It can be tempting to just start with a large piece, but don't! The foam is extremely grippy once it's set.

   Two small pieces keep the screen from flopping around.	A large piece can be used as a permanent solution.

   
   Carefully set down the glass.

8. Oh no! You've put your screen down too early and need to adjust something! Don't worry, but don't just pry up the glass either. Use a thin, blunt tool to push the meat of the foam out from the side.

9. Attach the TeensyView and USB cable. Then run the examples. The TeensyView has a few pins (labeled 0, 13, 14, 3V and GND) to help make sure it's oriented the right way. Here's what the final stack should look like on the Teensy 3.2 and Teensy 3.6. As you can see, the bend of the OLED's flex cable is on the side of the Teensy's USB connector.

Software Installation

The Teensy line doesn't rely on Arduino's compiler and libraries. Instead, the Teensyduino add-on supplies the resource.

To use the TeensyView, you'll need:

• A compatible Arduino IDE
• A version of Teensyduino to match your Arduino IDE
• The TeensyView Arduino Library

Getting the Arduino IDE and Teensyduino

Follow these steps to get what you need to compile for the Teensy.

1. Install a nonweb-based Arduino.

   See PJRC Teensyduino page for Arduino compatibility information.

   Download compatible Arduino software and install to a directory -- click on previous version of the current release for older releases.

   Windows Tip: The "Windows Installer" installs to your program directory and is fine for general use without version information. It expects only one installation to be present. When uisng Teensyduino with older versions of Teensy, use the "Windows ZIP file for non admin" and install it to a directory with version number in the name, and make an extra shortcut in your start menu. This will allow you to choose the latest Arduino for general use, or a particular installation for Teensy (or other boards).

2. Install Teensyduino to your new Arduino installation

   Get Teensyduino installer from PJRC Teensyduino page (same as above). Run the installer. It will ask for:

   • The newly installed Arduino folder
   • Which libraries to include (all recommended)

   Older versions of Teensyduino can be obtained by changing the version number in the download link.

3. Test your installation by selecting your Teensy board from the dropdown menu and then running the Blink example.

Getting the TeensyView Arduino Library

To get the Arduino library, download from GitHub or use the Arduino Library Manager.

Download the GitHub repository

Visit the GitHub repository to download the most recent version of the library, or click the button below:

Use the library manager or install in the Arduino IDE

For help installing the library, check out our Installing an Arduino Library tutorial.

If you don't end up using the manager, you'll need to move the SparkFun_TeensyView_Arduino_Library folder into a libraries folder within your Arduino sketchbook. You can remove "master" from the name if you like.

TeensyView Library Reference

Operating the Library

With Teensyduino and the TeensyView library installed, there's a few things to do in order to start drawing on the screen.

• Include the TeensyView header file -- #include <TeensyView.h>
• Create an object in the global space to use the TeensyView, and pass the desired pin numbers to the constructor. -- TeensyView oled(PIN_RESET, PIN_DC, PIN_CS, PIN_SCK, PIN_MOSI);
• Run the begin() function

Now you're ready to start controlling the screen. To draw a frame,

• Erase all or part of the screen.
• Draw new objects
• Use .display() to send all data to the screen.

This example shows including the library, creating the object, then repeatedly drawing a frame. The drawing commands are kept terse to serve as a good modifiable template. This example is also available from within the Arduino library.

The loop() can be seen near the end of the code. It runs each of the drawing examples. If you're wondering how the code does a certain thing on the screen, examine the routine (such as shapeExample(){}) and consult the Library Reference.

Example: Audio Board-Compatible Connection

This example shows off using the TeensyView with the audio platform. It takes incoming audio data on both line-in channels and displays a 40-bin FFT for each, plus some CPU usage info.

Hardware Requirements

• Teensy 3.1 to 3.6 (Note: CPU usage at 100% on the 3.1 with both FFTs enabled)
• TeensyView set to alternate jumpers
• Audio board with a line-in connection added
• Optional: Headphones attached to headphone out port (passes audio)

Choose the example TeensyViewAudio from the menu, compile and run. You should see all sorts of graphic demos go by on the screen. (Note: These can progress at different speeds depending on which Teensy is used.)

The important lesson from this sketch is that the constructor is passed the alternate set of pins, and can be used concurrently with the Audio board.

Use the same command from the ScreenDemo and paint the screen with whatever you need to display!

Example: Prop Shield-Compatible Connection

This example shows off using the TeensyView with the Prop Shield. This is a demonstration and test of all features on the Prop Shield and won't work on the LC prop shield, which doesn't have motion sensors.

The example:

• Creates a test file on the Flash (you may lose existing data) that contains RGB data
• Initializes the IMUs
• Initializes the Audio platform
• Displays heading, pitch and roll on the screen
• Generates a sine wave of pitch and filter based on physical orientation --- kind of like a Theremin!
• Continuously reads flash data from the test file and applies it to the APA102 LED

Wire the LED and speaker to the Prop Shield using the connection table:

Hardware Requirements

• Teensy 3.1 to 3.6
• TeensyView set to the following:
  • RST set to default
  • DC set to alternate
  • CS set to alternate
  • CLK set to default
  • mosi set to default
• Prop Shield with:
  • (optional) 1 AP102 attached to LED port -- 1m APA102 Strip or 5m APA102 Strip shown
  • (optional) Speaker attached to speaker port -- Audio Jack and Audio Jack Breakout shown

Choose the example TeensyViewProp from the menu, compile and run. After the splash screen, the sketch will start, and the display will switch to orientation information. (Note: With so many included libraries, this can take awhile to compile!)

  This enables all resources on the Teensy Prop Shield and operates them with

  Accelerometer data is used to drive Teensy Audio system (bends pitch)
  Flash is programmed with LED data at boot (note: comment out flash erasor if necessary)
  LED continuously reads flash file for color information (Driven raw by SPI)
  TeensyView continuously updated with pitch, roll, and heading information.

After compiling and uploading, the TeensyView will display heading, pitch and roll, while the LED proves flash communication and the speaker proves that the audio system is functioning.

Resources and Going Further

The TeensyView was designed to be as flexible as possible while still being able to nest down into a low-profile addition to the Teensy.

The TeensyView works with some really heavy examples, but they're really only demonstrations. What to do with it is up to you! They're great for adding simple debug info to a mobile project, while a diligent pixel artist could implement a whole menu system.

More information about the SSD1306 controller and the TeensyView design can be found here:

• Product GitHub Repository
• Library GitHub Repository
• Drawing Bitmaps --- How to make a bitmap array
• OLED Memory Map --- Talks about screen geometry and making fonts

Additional projects and sketches that use the TeensyView:

• The HighSpeedTest, in the examples folder, draws alternating pixels as fast as possible. This can be used to experiment with the limits of the TeensyView's OLED.
