E-Paper (Electronic Paper) is a display technology designed to mimic traditional paper and ink . It provides high contrast and readability in various lighting conditions, including direct sunlight , without requiring a backlight. E-paper uses microcapsules with charged particles to create stable images that remain visible without continuous power. Common applications include e-readers, electronic shelf labels, smartwatches, and IoT devices. Advantages Over Traditional Displays Paper-like readability and visibility in sunlight Consumes power only during updates Thin, lightweight design Wide viewing angles Extended battery life for portable devices Specification Parameters Details Model No. GDEY0213B74 Type Dot Matrix E-paper Display Size 2.13 inch Active Area (mm) 48.55 × 23.7046 Resolution 122 × 250 pixels Pixel Pitch (mm) 0.1943 × 0.1942 Display Color Black & White Grayscale 4 levels Partial Refresh Time 0.42s Full Refresh Time 3s Interface SPI Connector 24 Pin PFC, 0.5mm Pitch Viewing Angle >170° Operating Voltage 3.3V Operating Temperature 0–50°C Driver Mode Compatible with XIAO / STM32 / Arduino / MicroPython Drawing Supports GUI Drawing Power Consumption 10.5mW (typ.)
