Overview

5.83inch EPD (Electronic Paper Display) Module For Raspberry Pi Pico, 648 × 480 Pixels, Black / White/ Red, SPI Interface.

Features

  • No backlight keeps displaying last content for a long time even when power down.
  • Ultra-low power consumption, basically power is only required for refreshing.
  • SPI interface requires minimal IO pins.
  • 2 x user buttons and 1x reset button for easy interaction.

Specification

  • Dimension: 5.83inch
  • Outline dimensions(raw panel): 125.40mm x 99.50mm x 1.18mm
  • Outline dimensions(driver board): 65mm x 31mm
  • Display Size: 119.232(H) x 88.320(V)
  • Operating voltage: 3.3V
  • Interface: SPI
  • Dot pitch: 0.184 x 0.184
  • Display color: Red, Black, White
  • Resolution: 648(H) x 480(V)
  • Greyscale: 2
  • Full refresh time: 20s
  • Refresh power: 26.4mW (typ.)
  • Standby current: <0.01uA (almost none)

【Note】: Refresh time: The refresh time is the experimental test data, the actual refresh time will have errors, and the actual effect shall prevail. There will be a flickering effect during the global refresh process, this is a normal phenomenon.
Power consumption: The power consumption data is the experimental test data. The actual power consumption will have a certain error due to the existence of the driver board and the actual use situation. The actual effect shall prevail.

SPI Timing

Note: Different from the traditional SPI protocol, the data line from the slave to the master is hidden since the device only has a display requirement.

  • CS is slave chip select, when CS is low, the chip is enabled.
  • DC is data/command control pin, when DC = 0, write command, when DC = 1, write data.
  • SCLK is the SPI communication clock.
  • SDIN is the data line from the master to the slave in SPI communication.
  • Timing: CPHL=0, CPOL=0 (SPI0)
