If anyone is interested just send me a PM
Just wired up my micro LC filter annnndddd it didn’t work. Maybe a bigger one is necessary? these micro ones are rated for 16V1A, but I guess that’s not enough. I tried it both by itself and with my 220uF capacitor wried before it. Maybe the cap needs to come AFTER the LC filter? idk.
EDIT: Tried putting the cap on the output of the LC filter too. Still didn’t fix the issue. Honestly I’m not sure what else to try
Did you try connecting directly to 5v line without lc filter or a cap? See if it works that way at least you will know if they have any effect or not. Last resort would be connecting via usb socket. When I get home I ll try it. Taking the insulation off around the plug makes it super small and viable.
Post #55 explains it. Assuming it is only for more stable connection it should at least work without it. Because in our situation arduino just plays dead. That’s whole another problem.
Got 3 OLED’s for this, two out of the three can’t make them work.
Tried all found codes and example and nothing.
Using eh arduino i2c scanner for both’s he find them at their address 0x03c
but they never work.
So I spliced the power lead to just behind the micro USB port to feed it power there, and still doesn’t boot up properly. I tried it with power from both PPM and UART. I’m at a lost rn. I don’t understand why it won’t start up properly
