Raspberry Pi Pico 2/MicroPython display on SPI SSD1306 OLED

Last post show how to install MicroPython ssd1306 driver on Raspberry Pi Pico 2 in Thonny, and display on 0.96 inch 128x64 SSD1315 I2C OLED (SSD1306 compatible). Here is how to using the ssd1306 driver, display on 0.96 inch 128x64 SSD1306 SPI OLED.


Connection:


SPI SSD1306 OLED    Raspberry Pi Pico 2
========================================
- D/C		    GP13
- RST		    GP12
- SDA		    GP11 (mosi)
- SCL		    GP10 (sck)
- VCC		    3V3
- GND		    GND
		    GP9 (dummy cs) - No connection
		    GP8 (miso) - No connection
Notice that my SPI SSD1306 OLED is 6 pins version, no cs on board. But it's required in ssd1306 driver, so I have to assign dummy GP9 for it. Also GP8 is the SPI MISO, not use in this case.

Exercise Code:
