The Waveshare 10.3" E-Paper E-Ink Display (G), 1872×1404 Pixels, Black/White, 2-16 Grey Scales is a sophisticated display solution designed for a variety of applications such as price tags, shelf labels, and industrial instruments. This display features a high resolution of 1872×1404 pixels, providing clear and sharp images in black and white. The display is equipped with optical bonding technology and an anti-glare toughened glass panel, which enhances screen protection and reduces ambient light interference, reflective glare, and fingerprint residue.
This e-paper display offers a wide viewing angle of over 170 degrees and supports 2-16 grey scales, making it ideal for environments where ambient light is required. It operates without a backlight, maintaining the last displayed content even when powered down, which significantly reduces power consumption. The display is passively reflective, utilizing microcapsule electrophoretic technology to reflect ambient light, mimicking the appearance of traditional printed paper.
The display supports multiple communication interfaces, including Parallel Port, USB, SPI, and I80, allowing for versatile connectivity options with various controller boards such as Raspberry Pi and STM32. It also supports partial refresh, which is beneficial for applications requiring frequent updates. The optional e-Paper IT8951 Driver HAT (B) provides additional connectivity options and is compatible with the standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO header.
This e-paper display is particularly advantageous for applications requiring low power consumption and a paper-like reading experience. Its advanced optical bonding technology ensures a thinner screen profile while providing robust protection, making it a flexible and reliable choice for integration into diverse projects.
