E-Ink displays are low-power and daylight visible, retaining images even when power is off. This 7.5" monochrome display offers 800x480 pixels, resembling printed paper. Ideal for customized electronic paper projects, it uses the UC8179 chipset.
To operate, connect it using a 24-pin FPC e-paper connector to a compatible board. Options include the Feather RP2040 ThinkInk for a solderless plug-and-play experience with Arduino or CircuitPython support, or the eInk Feather Friend for Feather boards. Details on configuring graphics with dithering techniques can enhance visual output. Accessories like eInk Breakout Friend provide ease for breadboard use.
This display is perfect for projects needing a high-contrast, static display solution visible in any lighting condition. Check for compatibility with existing firmware or use our Arduino library for seamless integration.
