Pervasive Displays [no power displays - e-paper]

Hello Community

anyone working with e-paper displays? Like Pervasive Displays

The problem is they are quite difficult to get hold of and densitron their main distributers are D****

was not that problem - got 2 EM027AS012 (2.7” e-Paper Panel) from http://www.ineltek.com . about 30€ per unit

Oh ok, that is fair enough. Please post on how you get on.

looks great - got also very good support from Pervasive Displays to finish my work thx to kk


Very impressive. Nice to know pervasive are helpful.
Are you planning on releasing your code? or at least some documentation on how to get them working?
Thanks

finished the prototype and integrated it into u8glib - the plan is to release it with this library

I look forward to it.

That last image is informative. The display keeps the displayed image even when disconnected? Wow.

Is there an order page for that display? Your link goes to a non-English website.

take a look at the Distribution Partners, here you can find where to buy it

I have received the code from spass2000 and attached it to u8glib issue 93:
http://code.google.com/p/u8glib/issues/detail?id=93

The current code has been written for a PIC23 environment and needs to be
back ported to for any further integration with u8glib. I also need physical access
to one of these displays to do more detailed tests and analysis.

Due to my limited resources (time and money) i can not say how long it will take
to support these displays with u8glib.

Found at least one distributor that ships in small quantities. Their shipping rates are obscene, though.

Hi All

I just found these Pervasive displays online, and they seem like they would fit into a lot of projects very well.

I have ordered a Demo Kit

Perhaps we can co-ordinate an effort to get these things integrated with Arduino's

I'm a technician and hardware guy, terible programmer, but am here in the USA and can do hardware testing and get some demo kits.

Hi

I just want to give a small update on e-paper devices.

There is a module available for a 2.7" e-paper display:

According to this article source-code might be available in the next view months without NDA.

Oliver

I wonder what is so revolutionary about this display that they think they need to require an NDA, but only for another 30-60 days. It's odd. Just provide a data sheet, dudes.

Hi,
spass2000, where did you get that interface board? Is it just a breakout board for the FPC connector? or does it include the additional circuitry for the EPD?

Thanks!!
Asier.

Hi!

Since 3 weeks I'm testing arduino... WOW! What a great device!

Now I got the 2.7" epaper-Display from embeddedartists.
(http://www.embeddedartists.com/products/displays/lcd_27_epaper.php)
I've downloaded the library BUT

How to connect the pins?
In the datasheet I see 14 Pins:
GND , VCC, SPI-SCK, SPI-MOSI, SPI-MISO, SPI-SSEL, UART-RX/GPIO, UART-TX/GPIO, I2C-SCL, I2C-SDA, GPIO, GPIO, AINO/GPIO, AIN3/AOUT/GPIO

GND and VCC are clear.

Okay... And now?

I've checked Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting. to get more information, but I'm not sure, if this is the right lib.

I'm looking for a pin-table to arduino uno and some example code (e.g. Hello World would be great).

Can somebody help me?

Hey,

Does anyone have the datasheets for directly driving the EPD's Display, controller? specification including commands, SPI timing specification and what not.

thanks,

None of this is available without signing an NDA. It sounds complicated but if you buy the module from Electronic Artists, the whole process takes only 1-2 days.

Kind regards,

Hi!

Sorry for my last post.
I've reread the whole thread and now understand that it WILL be integratet into uglib and I have to wait.

Thanks to spass2000. Since your post I now, that IT IS POSSIBLE and I have to be more patient G.

So I have enough time to read more about SPI and how to connect such a device.
