Introduction
E-paper 24P Shield is an e-paper shield compatible with the Arduino standard interface. Through the onboard FPC 24P connector (0.5 mm pitch),
it accepts various FPC 24P interface e-paper screens, and pairs with any mainboard supporting the Arduino interface via standard Arduino pin headers.
Key Features
Plug and Play: using the universal Arduino pin-header interface, it stacks directly onto Arduino UNO / Leonardo / Mega and other standard mainboards.
Multi-Screen Compatible: via the FPC 24P interface, it supports various 24P e-paper modules (black/white / black/white/red / black/white/red/yellow etc.).
Vendor Compatible: via the P2 jumper, select 2.2 Ω / 0.47 Ω resistance to match different vendors' e-paper screens.
Low-Power Friendly: an e-paper screen consumes zero power for static display, ideal for battery-powered IoT labels, price tags, reminder boards and similar scenarios.
About the Arduino Interface
The Arduino header interface is a universal standard in the open-source hardware world and is not exclusive to any particular mainboard. Any mainboard following the Arduino UNO R3 pin definition (such as Arduino UNO, Leonardo, Mega, ESP32-Arduino compatible boards, etc.) can be used directly with this Shield.
Specifications
Specifications to be added.
Hardware
Core signals include SCK, MOSI, CS, DC, and RESET; backlight is independently controlled. Do not apply 5V directly to 3.3V signal pins.
Size
- Connect power and SPI signals per the pinout table.
- Configure chip select and orientation in the driver.
- Run a solid color test first, then load the graphical UI.
- Adjust SPI clock based on bus length.
FAQ
- Why is the screen all white?
- Check reset, chip select, data/command pins, and initialization model.
- What if the image has noise?
- Lower the SPI clock and shorten the connection wires.
