This 5.83inch E-Paper E-Ink Raw Display features a resolution of 648×480 pixels and a black/white dual-color display. It utilizes an SPI interface and does not include a PCB. The display is designed for applications such as price tags, shelf labels, and industrial instruments. With its paper-like displaying capability, it offers a wide viewing angle and low power consumption. Even without electricity, the display retains the last content shown for a long time. It requires minimal power only for refreshing. The product comes with development resources and a manual, including examples for Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, and STM32.
E-paper display utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology for displaying, the principle is: charged particles suspended in clear fluid will move to sides of microcapsule when electric field is applied, making the microcapsule become visible by reflecting ambient light, just as traditional printed paper.
E-paper display will clearly display images/texts under lamplight or natural light, requires no backlight, and features nearly up to 180Deg viewing angle. It is usually used as e-reader due to its paper-like effect.

Q: Is this display suitable for DIY projects?
A: Yes, it's suitable for DIY projects if you have experience with electronics and microcontroller programming. You'll need to design and implement the interface to control the display using the SPI protocol.
Q: What are the advantages of using an E-Ink display?
A: E-Ink displays offer several advantages, including low power consumption, wide viewing angles, and a paper-like appearance that is easy on the eyes. They are also well-suited for outdoor use as they don't require a backlight and are visible in sunlight.
Q: What are the typical applications of this E-Ink display?
A: This display is commonly used in e-readers, electronic shelf labels, industrial instruments, and other applications where low power consumption and a clear display are essential.
