The Waveshare 10.3″ E-Paper E-Ink Raw Display, 1872×1404, Black/White, 16 Grey Scales, Parallel Port, w/o PCB is an advanced display technology designed to mimic the appearance of traditional paper. This display offers a resolution of 1872×1404 pixels and supports 16 levels of grey scales, providing a clear and detailed visual experience. The display operates without a backlight, relying on ambient light to illuminate the screen, which contributes to its low power consumption and paper-like effect.

This e-paper display is particularly suitable for applications such as e-readers, electronic shelf labels, and industrial instruments, where a wide viewing angle and minimal power usage are advantageous. The display maintains its content even when powered down, requiring energy only during the refreshing process. It supports partial refresh, allowing for quick updates to the displayed content.

The display utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology, where charged particles move within a fluid to create visible images by reflecting ambient light. This technology ensures that the display is easily readable under various lighting conditions, including natural and lamplight, and offers a viewing angle of nearly 180 degrees.

The display is designed for integration with systems that use a parallel port for communication and comes with development resources, including a manual and examples for platforms such as Raspberry Pi and STM32. This makes it an ideal choice for developers and engineers looking to incorporate e-paper technology into their projects.
