E-Ink Display Module – 2.9″ (296×128)
Looking for an eInk / ePaper display for your project? Look no further! These little displays from Waveshare are available in 2.9″, 2.13″ & 1.54″ sizes, so you’re bound to find the perfect fit for your needs!
ePaper / eInk displays are designed to replicate the appearance of ink on paper. Unlike regular displays, which lose their image when power is removed, eInk screens are able to hold text and images indefinitely, even without power. ePaper screens are therefore ultra low power, designed to have a wide viewing angle and additionally have limited reflection under sunlight. The applications are limitless!
The E-Ink display modules from Waveshare come complete with an embedded controller PCB, communicating via SPI interface, and support partial refresh.
