Adafruit 2.9" Grayscale eInk / ePaper Display FeatherWing

Effortlessly integrate a high-contrast monochrome eInk display into your Feather projects with this intuitive breakout board. Experience the charm of e-ink technology, mirroring printed paper, while retaining the image even without power. This durable display is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, thanks to its excellent daylight readability.

Featuring a 2.9-inch grayscale screen with 296x128 pixels, the upgraded SSD1680 chipset facilitates swift updates, clocking just one second for monochrome and three seconds for grayscale. Its clever design includes built-in memory buffering, perfect for compatibility with compact chips, ensuring efficient operation with various Feather models, from the ESP8266 to the M0.

The FeatherWing's small SRAM chip eliminates the need for extensive frame-buffering, streamlining data transfer between SRAM and eInk seamlessly. This makes it an ideal choice for those looking to optimize microcontroller memory usage. The onboard MicroSD slot allows for effortless image or text file storage for quick access. This enhanced functionality is accompanied by an Adafruit_GFX compatible library for seamless interfacing.

With optional buttons available and compatibility with CircuitPython or Arduino, programming becomes a breeze. Pre-assembled with socket headers, no soldering is required, allowing you to dive straight into your next innovative project.
