Adafruit 4.2" 300x400 Monochrome or 4-Gray eInk / ePaper - Bare Display

E-Ink/E-Paper displays excel as low-power, daylight-visible screens that maintain their image even when powered off. Ideal for DIY projects, this 4.2-inch Monochrome or 4-level Grayscale display boasts a resolution of 400 x 300 pixels.

Its 'static' quality ensures images remain crisp without power. The display's high contrast makes it resemble printed paper, making it perfect for various custom applications. Known for clarity and efficiency, it's akin to technology used in e-readers like Kindle.

Specifications include a 24-pin FPC e-paper connector, and it's compatible with an SSD1683 chipset, so ensure your firmware supports it. Our Arduino library simplifies usability, resembling an Adafruit_GFX compatible display. It can also operate in '4-gray' mode for extra shades, though unofficially supported.

Example applications include DIY smart home displays, dynamic artwork, and innovative educational tools. Consider pairing it with our recommended driver boards like the Feather RP2040 ThinkInk for an effortless setup.
