This product is an E-paper device adopting the image display technology of Microencapsulated Electrophoretic Display, MED. The initial approach is to create tiny spheres, in which the charged color pigments are suspended in the transparent oil and would move depending on the electronic charge. The E-paper screen display patterns by reflecting the ambient light, so it has no background light requirement. Under ambient light, the E-paper screen still has high visibility with a wide viewing angle of 180 degrees. It is the ideal choice for E-reading.

===Pixel & Byte===
 
We define the pixels in a monochrome picture, 0 is black and 1 is white.<br />
 
White:□: Bit 1<br />
 
Black:■: Bit 0<br />
 
*The dot in the figure is called a pixel. As we know, 1 and 0 are used to define the color, therefore we can use one bit to define the color of one pixel, and 1 byte = 8pixels<br />
 
*For example, If we set the first 8 pixels to black and the last 8 pixels to white, we show it by codes, they will be 16 bit as below:<br />

Because of the problem of the controller, it defines 0000b to indicate that the corresponding pixel is black, and 0011b to indicate that the corresponding pixel is white, which is 4bit = 1pixel, and the lower two bits of the 4bit are both 0 to display black. On the contrary, the lowest two bits of 4bit can be 1 at the same time. Display white, other data will cause the color of the pixel to be uncertain;<br />

==Precautions==
 
#For the screen that supports partial update, please note that you cannot refresh the screen with the partial mode all the time. After several partial updating, you need to fully refresh the screen once. Otherwise, the screen display effect will be abnormal, which cannot be repaired!<br/>
 
#Because of the different batches, some of them have aberrations. Store the e-Paper right side up will reduce it. And if the e-Paper didn't be refreshed for a long time, it will become more and more reddish/yellowish. Please use the demo code to refresh the e-paper several times in this case.<br/>
 
#Note that the screen cannot be powered on for a long time. When the screen is not refreshed, please set the screen to sleep mode, or power off the e-Paper. Otherwise, the screen will remain in a high voltage state for a long time, which will damage the e-Paper and cannot be repaired!<br/>
 
#When using the e-Paper, it is recommended that the refresh interval be at least 180s, and refresh at least once every 24 hours. If the e-Paper is not used for a long time, the ink screen should be brushed and stored. (Refer to the datasheet for specific storage environment requirements)<br/>
 
#After the screen enters sleep mode, the sent image data will be ignored, and it can be refreshed normally only after initializing again.<br/>
 
#Control the 0x3C or 0x50 (refer to the datasheet for details) register to adjust the border color. In the routine, you can adjust the Border Waveform Control register or VCOM AND DATA INTERVAL SETTING to set the border.<br/>
 
#If you find that the created image data is displayed incorrectly on the screen, it is recommended to check whether the image size setting is correct, change the width and height settings of the image and try again.<br/>
 
#The working voltage of the e-Paper is 3.3V. If you buy the raw panel and you need to add a level convert circuit for compatibility with 5V voltage. The new version of the driver board (V2.1 and subsequent versions) has added a level processing circuit, which can support both 3.3V and 5V working environments. The old version can only support a 3.3V working environment. You can confirm the version before using it. (The one with the 20-pin chip on the PCB is generally the new version)<br/>
 
#The FPC cable of the screen is relatively fragile, pay attention to bending the cable along the horizontal direction of the screen when using it, and do not bend the cable along the vertical direction of the screen<br/>
 
#The screen of e-Paper is relatively fragile, please try to avoid dropping, bumping, and pressing hard.<br/>
 
#We recommend that customers use the sample program provided by us to test with the corresponding development board after they get the screen.<br/>
 
  
We provide several examples for testing, you first test the e-Paper by following the guides. If your developing board is different, you need to write your codes yourself by following the resources.

=== Display a Frame (DisplayFrame) ===
 
DisplayFrame is used to send a frame to the module, and the screen will refresh and display it.
 
 
 
Process: Send command data start transmission 1 -> Send data of an image to display -> Refresh the screen.
 
 
 
Note:
 
* About the image data: 4 bits = 1 pixel, doesn’t support Gray scale (can only display black and white). 0000 (binary) stands for a black pixel, otherwise 0011 (binary) stands for a white pixel.
 
 
 
For example:
 
<pre>
 
0x00: 2 pixels ■■
 
0x03: 2 pixels ■□
 
0x30: 2 pixels □■
 
0x33: 2 pixels □□
 
but 0x66: the state of pixels is uncertain
 
</pre>
 
* This module doesn’t support partial refresh.
 
* The refresh rate of this module is slow (about 6s), and it will flicker for several times during refreshing. Please be patient.

{{FAQ|When to transmit Data Start Transmission 1 and when to use Data Start Transmission 2. In KW mode, what is "OLD" data and what is "NEW" data. ?
 
|If it is a three-color screen, when you need to transmit B/W data, use Data Start Transmission 1, when transmitting RED data, use Data Start Transmission 2, because the 2.13inch e-Paper HAT (D) can only display black and white, Therefore, when working in KW mode Data Start Transmission 1, the last data is sent, that is, the so-called old, and 0x00 is directly sent in the program. When Data Start Transmission 2, the data that needs to be refreshed, the so-called "NEW" is sent. data.

{{FAQ|Can't display Chinese on the e-ink screen?
 
|The Chinese character library of our routine uses GB2312 encoding method, please change your xxx_test.c file to GB2312 encoding format, compile and download it, and it will display normally
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|The e-Paper display is dark or light?
 
|You can adjust the value of Vcom in the program to change the display contrast, and the screen improvement effect with local brushing is particularly obvious.
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|e-Paper shows black border?
 
|The border display color can be set through the Border Waveform Control register or the VCOM AND DATA INTERVAL SETTING register.
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|After multiple positions are brushed, the font is lighter after brushing several times?
 
|In this case, the customer needs to reduce the position of the round brush and clear the screen after 5 rounds of brushing (increasing the voltage of VCOM can improve the color, but it will increase the afterimage).
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|When the ink screen is in deep sleep mode, the first time the screen refreshes will be unclean. How can I solve it?
 
|The process of re-awakening the e-ink screen is actually the process of re-powering on the power. Therefore, when the EPD wakes up, it must first clear the screen, so as to avoid the afterimage phenomenon to the greatest extent.
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|When testing the program, the program has been stuck in e-Paper busy?
 
|*It may be caused by the unsuccessful spi driver<br/>
 
1. First check whether the wiring is correct<br/>
 
2. Check whether the spi is turned on and whether the parameters are configured correctly (spi baud rate, spi mode and other parameters)<br/>
 
}}
 
==Question about Hardware==
 
{{FAQ|Can Arduino 3.3V drive the ink screen?
 
|Yes, now there is a level conversion chip onboard, supporting 3.3V drive
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|What should be paid attention to when designing the driver board?
 
|The rated input voltage of the ink screen is 2.3~3.6V. If it is a 5V system, level conversion is required. In addition, the voltage should not be lower than 2.5V, so as not to affect the display effect of the ink screen.<br/>
 
Device selection can use the model in the schematic diagram we provide or choose according to the data sheet.<br/>

{{FAQ|Can I use analog SPI?
 
|Yes, pay attention to the correct timing<br/>
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|Why is the BUSY pin always busy?
 
|Check if SPI communication is normal<br/>
 
Confirm whether the BUSY pin is normally initialized to input mode<br/>
 
It may be that there is no normal reset, try to shorten the duration of the low level during reset (because the power-off switch is added to the drive circuit, the reset low level is too long, which will cause the drive board to power off and cause the reset to fail)
 
If the busy function sends the 0x71 command, you can try to comment it out<br/>

{{FAQ|Precautions for e-ink screen refresh
 
|*refresh mode<br/>
 
**Full brush: The electronic ink screen will flicker several times during the refresh process (the number of flickers depends on the refresh time), and the flicker is to remove the afterimage to achieve the best display effect<br/>
 
Bureau brush: The electronic ink screen has no flickering effect during the refresh process. Users who use the partial brushing function note that after refreshing several times, a full brush operation should be performed to remove the residual image, otherwise the residual image problem will become more and more serious, or even damage the screen (currently only some black and white e-ink screens support partial brushing, please refer to product page description)<br/>
 
**refresh rate<br/>
 
During use, it is recommended that customers set the refresh interval of the e-ink screen to at least 180 seconds (except products that support the local brush function)<br/>
 
During the standby process (that is, after the refresh operation), it is recommended that the customer set the e-ink screen to sleep mode, or power off operation (the power supply part of the ink screen can be disconnected with an analog switch) to reduce power consumption and prolong the life of the e-ink screen. (If some e-ink screens are powered on for a long time, the screen will be damaged beyond repair.)
 
During the use of the three-color e-ink screen, it is recommended that customers update the display screen at least once every 24 hours (if the screen remains the same screen for a long time, the screen burn will be difficult to repair)<br/>
 
**place of use<br/>
 
The e-ink screen is recommended for indoor use. If it is used outdoors, it is necessary to avoid direct sunlight on the e-ink screen, and at the same time, take UV protection measures, because charged particles will dry out under strong light for a long time, resulting in loss of activity and failure to refresh. This situation is irreversible. When designing e-ink screen products, customers should pay attention to determine whether the use environment meets the requirements of e-ink screen<br/>
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|What is the refresh rate/lifetime of the e-ink screen?
 
|Ideally, with normal use, it can be refreshed 1,000,000 times (1 million times)
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|After using for a period of time, the screen refresh (full refresh) has a serious afterimage problem that cannot be repaired?
 
|Power on the development board for a long time, after each refresh operation, it is recommended to set the screen to sleep mode or directly power off processing, otherwise the screen may burn out when the screen is in a high voltage state for a long time.
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|After the ink screen enters deep sleep mode, can it be refreshed again?
 
|Yes, but you need to re-initialize the electronic paper with software.
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|Why is the image displayed offset
 
|Maybe the SPI rate is too high, resulting in data loss, try to reduce the SPI rate<br/>
 
Insufficient or unstable power supply leads to data loss<br/>
 
The data cable is too long to cause data loss, the extension cable should not exceed 20cm<br/>
 
}}
 
{{FAQ|What is the waveform file of the e-ink screen and what does it do?
 
|The display gray scale of electrophoretic electronic paper is determined by the spatial position of the particles in the microcapsule or microcup. The electrophoresis phenomenon occurs between black particles and white particles under the action of voltage. This voltage sequence that promotes the electrophoretic movement of the particles is the driving force of the electronic paper. waveform. The driving waveform is the core part of the electronic paper display, and the optimization of the driving waveform will directly affect the display effect of the display. The driving waveform file is used to describe the parameters formed by the voltage sequence that promotes the electrophoretic movement of the particles, and it needs to be called regularly when the electronic paper is refreshed.
 
Different batches of e-paper diaphragms and electrophoretic matrices require different voltage values ​​when driving the display due to materials, manufacturing processes, etc. The waveform of the e-ink screen is reflected in the relationship between grayscale, voltage and temperature. Generally speaking, after each batch of electrophoresis matrix is ​​generated, there will be a corresponding waveform file in the form of a .wbf file. The film manufacturer will provide the waveform file and electrophoresis matrix to the manufacturer of the electronic paper screen, and then the The manufacturer of electronic paper screen integrates the protection board, substrate and driver and then provides it to customers; if the waveform file does not correspond to the screen, it is likely that the display cannot be displayed or the display effect is unsatisfactory. Generally, the waveform file has OTP built into the driver IC of the ink screen when leaving the factory, and some programs we provide also call external waveform files to drive the e-ink screen.

{{FAQ| What do LUT and OTP stand for?
 
|LUT is the abbreviation of LOOK UP TABLE, and OTP is the abbreviation of ONE TIME PROGRAM. The original intention of LUT is to load waveform files, and the waveform files are divided into OTP and REGISTER. Among them, OTP is the built-in waveform storage method, and REGISTER is the external waveform storage method.
