Features at a glance:

• No backlight, keeps displaying last content for a long time even when power down
• Ultra low power consumption, basically power is only required for refreshing
• Comes with online development resources and manual (e-Paper Driver HAT circuit diagram, examples for Raspberry Pi / Jetson Series / Arduino / STM32 / ESP32)
• Optional for e-Paper Driver HAT:
• Standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO extension header, supports Raspberry Pi series boards, Jetson series boards
• Adapting SPI interface for connecting with controller boards like Raspberry Pi / Arduino / STM32 / ESP32, etc.
• Onboard voltage translator, compatible with 3.3V / 5V MCUs

Advantages of EINK:

E-paper display utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology for displaying, the principle is: charged particles suspended in clear fluid will move to sides of microcapsule when electric field is applied, making the microcapsule become visible by reflecting ambient light, just as traditional printed paper.

E-paper display will clearly display images/texts under lamplight or natural light, requires no backlight, and features nearly up to 180° viewing angle. It is usually used as e-reader due to its paper-like effect.

Optional for e-Paper Driver HAT:

Onboard SPI Control Interface, For Use With Controller Boards Like Raspberry Pi / Arduino / STM32 / ESP32

• PWR : Power control pin
• BUSY : Busy status output
