Product details

This is a 2.9-inch E-Ink / E-Paper display module with a resolution of 296x128 pixels, featuring an integrated controller that communicates via the SPI interface. This black and white display supports partial area updates, allowing individual areas to be updated quickly within 0.3 seconds. A full display update takes only 2 seconds. The extremely low power consumption makes it ideal for battery-powered applications. These displays are also used in retail as price tags, where they can run on a battery for several years. The display offers a very good viewing angle and can be easily read even in sunlight. The delivery includes a connection cable for easy connection to a Raspberry Pi. For an Arduino Uno or if you want to connect it to a breadboard, you will need 8 male/male dupont cables.

  • Onboard level converter for compatibility with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers.
