상세정보

There are usually three kinds of update mode of E-paper display:

Update Mode	Full Update	Patial Update	Fast Update
Supported colors	Three-colors (BWR) and monochrome (BW)	Monochrome (BW)	Monochrome (BW)
Image data upload	Full screen image New image buffer with all 0x00 buffer	Partial window image Previous image buffer and new image buffer	Full screen image Previous image buffer and new image buffer
Panel update	Whole screen Flashing effect	Partial window Fast mode	Whole screen Fast mode
Image quality	Optimal quality	Possible ghosting	Possible ghosting
Upload image speed	Slow	Fast	Slow
Update image speed	Slow	Fast	Fast
Overall speed	Slow	Fastest	Faster

Tip: So why don't we use partial or fast updates all the time? Why bother with all the flickering? The optical performance of a full update is way better. You get better contrast and a well defined image. If you use partial or fast updates too often, you'll get the so called "ghosting" effect. Ghosting looks like old display content is burned in and shows through in the new image. You can get rid of ghosting by doing another full update, therefore, our recommendation is to do one full update after five or six partial or fast updates.

PLATFORMS

Goodisplay has multiple development plans for driving EPDs. Here we mainly introduce STM32, EPS32 and ESP8266 to you. Users can also drive EPDs via Raspberry Pi/ Raspberry Pi Pico, which you can learn more on our WEBSITE.

STM32

STM32 based on Cortx-M, has 32-bit microcontroller, supports broad 32-bit applications including high performance, real time, processing digital signal and low-power, low-voltage operation and is a perfectly integrated and easy development kit. There is a broad product line based on STM32 for its industial-standardized core, plenty of tools and softwares to support it. It is an ideal choice for many products. Its MCU, STM32F103VET6 and has related drivers that can be transplanted onto users' development plan to drive EPDs.

ESP8266

For easy understanding, we may apprehend the ESP8266 as a MCU with WiFi function, which we can use another MCU to communicate following the same instruction to implement operations. ESP8266 is a serial port WiFi module, with an integrated MCU to realize serial communication. It is easy to learn and small enough for embedded development. It designed for mobile deveces, smart wearables and IoT products. Relyed on multiple patents, it has realized ultra-low power consumption and has power-saving mode for all kinds of related scenarios.

ESP32

Likewise,we may also apprehend the ESP32 as a MCU with WiFi+BT function, which we can use another MCU to communicate following the same instruction to implement operations. Compared with ESP8266, it has BT function and a faster and lower-power CPU.It is easy to learn and small enough for embedded development. It designed for mobile deveces, smart wearables and IoT products. Relyed on multiple patents, it has realized ultra-low power consumption and has power-saving mode for all kinds of related scenarios.

DEMONSTRATION OF UPDATES

IO settings have already been done previously so that users only need to connect the adaptor board to the main board.
In order to realize different updates users only need to revise the software.
The following section will detail the IO settings:

REFRESH TIME AND CURRENT

Take GDEW029T5D as an example，we can use the methods below to change the price.


	gImage_1		gImage_2		gImage_3

Monochrome E-paper Display（GDEW029T5D)
1. Full Update Mode
2. Partial Update Mode
3. Fast Update Mode

Tri-color E-paper Display（GDEH029Z13)
1. Full Update Mode
2. Partial Update Mode Note: The partial update here is only when black and white are displayed, not real partial update.

REFRESH TIME AND CURRENT

The following results are the representative values of the same EPD(GDEW029T5D) under the same conditions.

Type	Mode	Time(s)	Current(mA)
GDEW029T5D (B/W)	Full update	3s	2.6mA
