Our RedBoards are great. But don't they sometimes seem a little BIG?!
Enter smôl, a new range of boards which are both small in size and small on current draw. It's a smôl world!
The smôl OLED Display is a high contrast, small monochrome display with 128 x 32 pixels. Perfect for applications that don't possess a lot of space but still need to communicate to the user. The display uses the common SSD1306 driver IC fully supported by our blistering fast SparkFun Qwiic OLED Library.
The smôl OLED Display has only one connector on the back of the board allowing this to be the 'top' board on your smôl stackup.
smôl is an ecosystem of miniature processor boards, peripheral boards, power boards and accessories. Designed to be both physically small and to have the smallest possible current draw, smôl is the perfect choice for applications like wildlife tracking or discrete long-term monitoring. smôl boards are designed to stack one on top of the other, using 16-way 0.5mm-pitch Flexible Printed Circuits (FPCs) to provide the interconnect from one board to the next. Looking for a really compact solution for your next project? This is it!
We will be adding new smôl boards over the coming months. Don't see the board you need for your application? Reach out to us via the SparkX Forum and tell us which board(s) we should add next!
