7.5" 800x480 Monochrome eInk / ePaper - Bare Display - UC8197 Chipset
Ā
The 7.5" E-Ink/E-Paper Display (800x480, Monochrome) uses the UC8197 chipset, providing daylight-readable, low-power performance with static image retention. It connects via a 24-pin FPC connector and works with supported driver boards for easy integration.
E-Ink/E-Paper displaysĀ make for great low-power displays that are daylight visible and keep their image even when depowered. For folks who want to DIY their own E-Ink setups,Ā this is aĀ 7.5" diagonalĀ Monochrome eInk / ePaperĀ Bare Display with 800 x 480 pixels.
Chances are you've seen one of those new-fangled 'e-readers' like the Kindle or Nook. They have gigantic electronic paper 'static' displays, which means the image stays on the display even when power is completely disconnected. The image is also high contrast and very daylight readable. It really does look just like printed paper!
Please note: this is the bareĀ display element.Ā You need to plug it into a board with a 'standard' 24-pin FPC e-paper connector.Ā We recommend checking out and picking up a matching driver board:
- Feather RP2040 ThinkInkĀ - solderless plug-and-play solution with Arduino or CircuitPython support. Definitely the easiest way to get started, and is what we show in the demo above
- eInk Feather FriendĀ - FeatherWing add-on for any Feather board)
- eInk Breakout FriendĀ - breadboard-friendly adapter that gives you level-shifting and components for quick eInk connectivity.
- 24-pin eInk / ePaper Extension CableĀ +Ā 24-pin FPC adapterĀ - both together will give your eInk display a stretch so you can place it anywhere.
This is a 7.5" monochromeĀ display. It has 800x480 blackĀ ink pixels and a white-ish background. It uses the UC8197Ā chipset, so make sure whatever firmware code you are planning to use has support for it.Ā The Arduino library we wrote does all the work for you; you can just interface with it as if it were an Adafruit_GFX compatible display.
Despite having only monochromatic pixels, it's possible to get nice-looking graphics on eInk displays: Check out our guide on ditheringĀ for how to get the best output from these panels.
