Displays for classic Arduinos
I am consolidating some application and performance information here on various graphic displays you can use with the Arduino Uno, Nano, and Pro Mini. I'm focusing on these classic ATmega328P-based devices because their popularity makes what you can do with them relevant and their low performance makes them a real challenge.
There are heaps and piles of different displays that you can use with Arduinos, so this by no means a complete list. I've included here only those I've had experience with and am running tests that are relevant to my needs.
Summary of results
| program storage (%) | dynamic storage (%) | speed (msec) | clock (MHz) | comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20×4 character (parallel) | 15 | 4 | 14 | 16 | HD44780 w/BigCrystal |
| 20×4 character (serial) | - | - | - | 16 | |
| Nokia 5110 | 42 | 24 | 100 | 8 | PCD8544 w/U8g2 |
| 1.8″ and 1.44″ TFT | 56 | 13 | 525 | 16 | ST7735 w/ Ucglib, solid fonts |
| Tiny 128×64 OLED | 46 | 28 | 76 | 16 | SSD1306 w/U8g2 |
