Universal e-Paper Raw Panel Driver HAT

This is a universal driver board for e-Paper raw panels, can be used to drive various SPI interface e-Paper from that we carry.

Out of the box, it can be stacked on the Raspberry Pi board through the 40-pin GPIO, getting the power and communication from the Raspberry Pi board. So it is compatible will all the Raspberry Pi board that has 40-pin GPIO, except the CM (Compute Module).

Note: e-Paper display and Raspberry Pi are NOT INCLUDED in the package.

Features and specifications:

• Standard Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO extension header, supports Raspberry Pi series boards, and also Jetson Nano
• SPI interface, for connecting with other controller boards like Raspberry/Arduino/Nucleo, etc.
• Onboard voltage translator, compatible with 3.3V/5V MCUs
• Comes with development resources and manual (examples for Raspberry Pi/Arduino/STM32)
• Operating voltage: 3.3V~5V
• Interface: 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI
  • VCC - 3.3V~5V
  • GND - Ground
  • DIN - SPI MOSI pin
  • CLK - SPI SCK pin
  • CSSPI chip selection, active low
  • DC - Data/Command selection (high for data, low for command)
  • RST - External reset, active low
