800x480 7.5inch Black/White E-Ink Display Raspberry Pi HAT

This is an XXL E-Ink / ePaper display module 7.5inch with 800×480 pixel resolution, with an integrated controller that communicates via the SPI interface. Due to its extremely low power consumption, it is excellent for battery-operated applications. These displays are also used in retail as price tags, where they can run for several years with a single battery. The display has a very good viewing angle and can also be easily read in sunlight. The entire display refresh takes 6 seconds, so it is of course not intended for applications where the display needs to be updated every second.

Features:  

• Onboard level converter compatible with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers
  
• Display contents are retained even without power supply 
  
• Ultra low power consumption 
  
• Power is fundamentally only needed for refreshing  
  
• SPI interface for connection to controller boards like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP8266, or ESP32 
  
• Compatible with Raspberry Pi 2B/3B/Zero/Zero W
  
• Good documentation and example code available on the Waveshare Wiki 
  
• Programming examples available for the following controllers: Arduino, stm32, and Raspberry Pi
