This product has reached end of life . Here's a list of ePaper modules we have available.

(EOL) 2.13 Inch 3-Color ePaper Display

Part Number: CFAP104212C0-0213

Ready to start developing with the latest display technology? ePaper / eInk is the latest in low-power display solutions to hit the market. Once updated these displays literally need zero power to maintain an image. It's like a digital etch-a-sketch. Coupled with an adapter board and an Arduino / Seeeduino and you can quickly demonstrate the functionality of this high contrast, ultra-low-powered display.

This 2.13" active area contains 212x104 pixels and has 1-bit white/black and 1-bit red full display capabilities. An integrated circuit contains a gate buffer, source buffer, interface, timing control logic, oscillator, DC-DC, SRAM, LUT, VCOM, and border.

Use our free ePaper software to prepare your bitmap image for this display.

Adapter / Breakout Board
Want to get this display up and running quickly with an Arduino or Seeeduino? We have this ePaper Adapter Board that makes connecting our ePaper simple and fast.

Summary:	Global Demand Increasing Lead Times on ePaper Modules.
Description:	Due to increased global demand for AI chips, semiconductor fabricators are prioritizing AI chip production, which is sidelining display controller manufacturing. Crystalfontz is currently experiencing extended lead times of six months or more on products utilizing EPD display controllers. We request that POs are placed well in advance and forecasts are provided to us so that we plan accordingly. We are actively monitoring the situation and working to reduce the impact this may have on customers.
Reason:	Global semiconductor fabrication capacity constraints driven by AI chip demand have significantly reduced display controller production allocations across the industry. This is an industry-wide condition outside of Crystalfontz's control.
Impact:	Extended lead times of up to six months on affected EPD products Additional display controller types may be impacted as the situation evolves Product availability is subject to change
Availability:	Contact Crystalfontz Support for up-to-date information by emailing support@crystalfontz.com. Customers who can provide purchase forecasts or updated order projections are strongly encouraged to do so.
