## Description

Utilising Advanced Color ePaper (ACeP) technology, this display supports up to seven colors. It doesn't require a backlight, meaning it can retain the last displayed content even when powered off. Its design ensures minimal power consumption, needing energy only to refresh the display. Equipped with a standard Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO extension header, it is compatible with Raspberry Pi boards and Jetson Nano. The SPI interface allows connections with various controller boards, including Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, and STM32. Additionally, it has an onboard voltage translator to work seamlessly with both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers.
