ESP32 E-Ink
ESP32 2.13 Inch E-Paper Screen DEPG0213BN TTGO T5
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
- Comes with development resources and manual (examples for Arduino-esp32)
Specifications
- Operating voltage: 3.3V
- Interface: 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI
- Display color: black, white
- Grey level: 2
- Full refresh time: 8s
- Refresh power: 26.4mW(typ.)
- Driver chip：SSD1680
- Display Driver：DEPG0213BN
This is a 2.13-inch DES electronic paper display with a resolution of 212x104 and communication via SPI interface
The driver IC includes gate buffer, source buffer, time control logic, oscillator, DC-DC, SRAM, LUT, VCOM, and each panel provides a frame.
Wide operating temperature range: -20℃ ~ 60℃.
