Description
Easy e-paper finally comes to microcontrollers, with this breakout that makes adding a quad-color eInk display a breeze. With a 2.13" diagonal size, this high-contrast display features 250x122 pixels with four colors: red, black, yellow, and white. Using the JD79661 chipset, it supports CircuitPython and Arduino with libraries that allow you to create frame buffers and display full images.
Unlike typical eInk displays that require large microcontroller memory for buffering, this display includes a small SRAM chip on the back, sharing the SPI port with the display and reducing memory usage. A built-in MicroSD socket allows storing of images or text files directly on the card for ultra-low power applications.
Everything is 3 or 5V logic safe for compatibility with all microcontrollers. Additionally, the onboard 3.3V regulator enable pin allows complete shutdown of power to SRAM, MicroSD, and display for power saving.
