Hi,

Is there a way to interface any kind of I2C display with PIC12F675 ?
For example: LCD (16x2) or 0.96 inch Oled or any other type.
Looking forward for the guidance please.

Regards

I think, you should choose other PIC. PIC12F675 don't have enough memory regions to handle I2C and displays. Check for PIC12F1840.

Hello.
Before purchasing a different microcontroller, you can work out the minimum RAM requirements of a display by multiplying the resolution and then diving by 8.
E.g if using 128 x 64, the minim RAM required is

Code: Select all

128 x 64 / 8 = 1024 bytes RAM
If it was me I would go with the microcontroller that is the next size up e.g 2048 bytes of RAM
