preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Vishay OLED brightness
« on: October 29, 2017, 10:53:31 PM »
Hi all,
I'm building a PreenFM2 and I chose a Vishay OLED from Mouser for its white text display. https://www.mouser.com/search/ProductDetail.aspx?r=78-020N004AWPP5N0000
It works, and text is visible, but it's quite dim compared to photos I've seen of the yellow OLED. I soldered a jumper for the OLED resistor and verified that 5V is being delivered to the display (which is what the supply voltage is rated at). Is there a modification I can make to increase the brightness of the display?
FWIW, so far I hear no extra noise.
