16x2 Yellow Sunlight Readable OLED With SPI

Part Number: CFAL1602C-PYT

This yellow-on-black OLED SPI sunlight readable CFAL1602C-PYT provides a striking, high contrast visual appearance that stays consistent from -40°C to 80°C (-40°F to 176°F). Since OLEDs are emissive, there is no backlight, resulting in a thinner package that is ideal when you need a reliable 16x2 character display and space is at a premium. The modern look of the CFAL1602C-PYT OLED display provides a very wide 160° viewing angle, keeping the same crisp view from nearly any direction.

The command set of the on-board WS0010 controller is similar to the industry standard Hitachi HD44780 and compatibles, reducing your adoption time of the CFAL1602C-PYT into your project. With four built in font tables, multi-language support is a breeze.

Looking to change the look of your existing product that uses our CFAH1602C? The CFAL1602C-PYT has the same physical footprint.

  • Thin package, no backlight.
  • High contrast sunlight readable OLED Character Display.
  • True black background with yellow characters.
  • This SPI interface OLED has a sleek, modern visual appearance.
  • Four built in font tables:
    • English / Japanese
    • English / Western European I
    • English / Western European II
    • English / Cyrillic
  • Extra wide range operating temperature: -40°C to 80°C (-40°F to 176°F).
  • No visual change over entire operating temperature range.
  • Very wide 160° viewing angle.
  • Easy connectivity with standard 0.100" / 2.54mm connector.
  • SPI sample code, datasheet and RoHS/REACH Certificate of Compliance are under the Datasheets & Files section.

Product Update #11116: Bezel Change

Products Affected: CFAL0802A-Y, CFAL1602C-B, CFAL1602C-W, CFAL1602C-Y, CFAL1602C-YT, CFAL1602C-PW, CFAL1602C-PY, CFAL1602C-PYT
Date Issued: February 21, 2022
Summary: Bezel Change
Description: The bezel around these OLED displays is being modified to remove the small gap adjacent to the PCB.
Reason: This gap is used in the manufacturing of STN LCDs that share the same bezel and is not necessary for OLED displays.
Availability: Contact Crystalfontz Support for up-to-date information by emailing support@crystalfontz.com.

Product Update #11103: Reset pin modification

Products Affected: CFAL1602C-YT, CFAL1602C-PW, CFAL1602C-PY, CFAL1602C-PYT, CFAL5016A-PY
Date Issued: October 14, 2021
Summary: Reset pin modification
Description: RST and CST, the components in the RC filter for the reset pin, are being modified. RST will be 33kOhms and CST will be 1uF.
Reason: Some reset circuits have shown not to be strong enough to drive the reset pin within the specified timing. If the reset circuit is not strong enough, the controller will not properly reset which causes abnormal behavior.
