Description
- Waveshare 5.79″ E-Paper (B) Raw Display, E-Ink, 792×272, Red/Black/White, SPI Communication
- Mimics traditional paper effect
- Supports red, black, white colors
- Operates with SPI communication
- Maintains content without power
- Facilitates wide integration platforms
The Waveshare 5.79″ E-Paper (B) Raw Display, E-Ink, 792×272, Red/Black/White, SPI Communication offers a sophisticated display solution characterized by its low power consumption and wide viewing angle. This e-paper display is designed to mimic the appearance of traditional paper, providing a paper-like effect without the need for electricity. It is particularly suitable for applications such as price tags, shelf labels, and industrial instruments.
This display features a resolution of 792×272 pixels and supports three colors: red, black, and white. It operates using SPI communication and requires ambient light to function, as it is passively reflective and does not include a backlight. The display maintains the last content shown even when powered down, making it highly energy-efficient, with power primarily needed only during content refreshing.
The e-paper technology employed in this display utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology, which allows for clear visibility under both lamplight and natural light. This technology ensures a viewing angle of nearly 180 degrees, making it ideal for e-reader applications. The display is compatible with development resources and manuals for platforms such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, and STM32, facilitating integration into various projects.

- Advantages of EINK: Utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology; charged particles in clear fluid move to microcapsule sides when an electric field is applied, making the microcapsule visible by reflecting ambient light, similar to traditional printed paper. Displays images/texts clearly under lamplight or natural light, requires no backlight, and offers nearly 180 viewing angle. Commonly used as an e-reader due to its paper-like effect
