It has the ultra-low power usage of eInk and the fast-refresh rates of an LCD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model has a gray background, and pixels show up as black-on-gray for a nice e-reader type display. It does not have a backlight, but it is daylight readable. For dark\/night reading you may need to illuminate the LCD area with external LEDs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bare display is 3V powered and 3V logic, so Adafruit placed it on a fully assembled \u0026amp; tested breakout board with a 3V regulator and level shifting circuitry. Now you can use it safely with 3 \u003cem\u003eor\u003c\/em\u003e 5V power and logic. The bare display slots into a ZIF socket on board and Adafruit use a piece of double-sided tape to adhere it onto one side. There are four mounting holes so you can easily attach it to a box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe display is 'write only' which means that it only needs 3 pins to send data. However, the downside of a write-only display is that the entire 168x144 bits (3 KB) must be buffered by the microcontroller driver. \u003cstrong\u003eThat means you cannot use this with an ATmega328 (e.g. Arduino UNO) or ATmega32u4 (Feather 32u4, etc).\u003c\/strong\u003e You must use a high-RAM chip such as ATSAMD21 (\u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=m0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eFeather M0\u003c\/a\u003e), \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/products\/teensy-3-5-3-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eTeensy 3\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=esp8266\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eESP8266\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=esp32\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eESP32\u003c\/a\u003e, etc. On those chips, this display works great and looks wonderful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/adafruit-sharp-memory-display-breakout\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eCheck our the detailed guide for wiring diagrams, schematics, libraries, code, Fritzing objects, etc!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay dimensions (viewable): 24.5mm × 21mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDot pitch: 34mm x 33.3mm \/ 1.34\" × 1.31\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay size: 36.6mm \/ 1.44\" diagonal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent draw depends on refresh rate: with 1Hz data refresh, its 12uW (4uA @ 3.3V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCB Dimensions: 40mm x 39mm x 4.6mm \/ 1.58\" x 1.54\" x 0.18\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 6g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43871876426,"sku":"ADA3502","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/3502-06.jpg?v=1539264462","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-sharp-memory-display-breakout-1-3-168x144-monochrome","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
