I’ve wrapped the Adafruit Sh110x library to provide XOD support for the SH1106G and SH1107 OLED drivers (I2C only):

- [wayland/sh1106g-oled-i2c — XOD](https://xod.io/libs/wayland/sh1106g-oled-i2c/)
- [wayland/sh1107-oled-i2c — XOD](https://xod.io/libs/wayland/sh1107-oled-i2c/)

I’ve tested the sh1107-oled-i2c library using a [Pimoroni Mono OLED Breakout (1.12" 128x128 pixels)](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/1-12-oled-breakout?variant=12628508704851) and an ESP32:

N.B. For anyone considering using a 128x128 pixel OLED, please heed this warning from Adafruit:

> This display, being 128x128 pixels, requires 128 \* 128 = 2KB of SRAM just to buffer the display. So **you can’t use it with a small chip such as the Arduino UNO** (ATmega328 or 32u4). Pick a microcontroller or microcomputer with 16KB+ RAM - a SAMD21, SAMD51, ESP, nRF52, Teensy, etc will do an excellent job.

I don’t have an SH1106G OLED, so I haven’t been able to test the library for this device beyond checking that the example patches compile.
