10.85inch e-Paper HAT+

The 10.85inch e-Paper HAT+ from Waveshare is a large-format E-Ink display with a diagonal of 10.85 inches and a resolution of 1360 × 480 pixels. The display operates using electrophoretic technology and displays content in black and white with two grayscale levels. Thanks to passive-reflective technology, the panel requires no backlight and permanently displays the last shown content even without power supply. The viewing angle exceeds 170°, enabling paper-like readability from almost any angle. Communication is via SPI interface, supporting both 3-Wire and 4-Wire SPI. The included e-Paper Driver HAT features a standard 40-PIN GPIO header compatible with Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, STM32, and ESP32. An integrated voltage regulator on the driver board allows operation with both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers. The HAT complies with the Raspberry Pi HAT+ standard, enhancing interoperability with additional peripheral devices. Power consumption is extremely low, as energy is primarily required only during display updates, with standby current below 0.01 µA. Waveshare provides online development resources and example code for various platforms.
