Explore Good Display's complete range of E-Ink display products. Access detailed technical documentation, drivers, and user guides for optimal display solutions in your projects.

Essential Operation Guidelines

Proper Handling

Hold the device by its edges, avoid pressing the screen center to prevent FPC cable damage.

Avoid Bending

E-Ink displays contain delicate FPC cables. Do not bend or twist the device.

Refresh Modes

Choose between full or partial refresh modes to balance display quality and ghosting effects.

Screen Protector Notice

Do not remove the factory screen protector until confirming the display has no quality issues.

E-Ink Display Unboxing & Setup Guide

Video Key Points

Unboxing Inspection

Check packaging integrity, confirm all accessories are present, and verify the screen protector is intact.

Screen Protection

Avoid sharp objects contacting the screen. Clean with a soft cloth only—no chemical cleaners.

Proper Connection

Ensure proper interface alignment. Avoid forceful cable insertion/removal to prevent FPC damage.

Initial Setup

Follow the user manual for initial configuration and refresh settings. Select appropriate refresh mode.

Important: Screen Protector Policy

Good Display products include a factory-applied screen protector. Do not remove this protector until you have confirmed the display has no quality issues. Once removed, screen-related returns or exchanges cannot be processed.

Inspection Procedure:

Check for dead pixels, bright spots, or discoloration with protector on
Inspect screen edges for damage or abnormalities
Power on and verify normal display function with complete refresh
Only then decide whether to keep or remove the protector

E-Ink Display Usage & Maintenance Guide

Critical Safety Rules

Prevent permanent display damage with these essential precautions:

Never leave static images displayed: When showing unchanged content, set the display to sleep mode or completely power off. Extended high voltage can cause irreversible film damage.
Handle the FPC with extreme care: The flexible printed circuit cables at the screen base are delicate. Never pull, tear, or repeatedly bend vertically. During debugging, securely clamp and fix cables in place.
Verify operating voltage: Most displays operate at 3.3V. If your system uses 5V, implement proper level conversion to prevent display burnout.

Troubleshooting & Debugging

Practical solutions for common issues:

Display abnormalities: If the image appears pixelated or blurry, first check the image extraction mode and replace the image data in the program.
Initial testing: When receiving a new display, strongly recommended to first test with official example programs and compatible development boards.
Full refresh flickering: This is a normal characteristic of E-Ink technology and expected behavior.
Color variations in cold temperatures: If colors appear abnormal after refreshing in cold environments, let the display sit at 25°C (room temperature) for 6 hours, then refresh to restore normal display.

Physical Protection & Important Notes

Protect your display and ensure proper usage:

Display fragility: E-Ink screens are relatively fragile, similar to glass. Avoid drops, impacts, or excessive pressure.
Consult the datasheet: All timing and power consumption data are experimental values. Actual performance may vary. Refer to observations and official datasheets as primary references.
Environmental considerations: Review datasheet recommendations for storage temperature/humidity ranges to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Voltage Compatibility Warning

E-Ink displays are highly voltage-sensitive. Always verify your system provides the correct voltage (typically 3.3V). Using incompatible voltage may cause permanent damage not covered by warranty.

Recommended Refresh Schedule

For optimal display quality and extended screen lifespan, follow these refresh cycles:

Regular use: It is recommended to perform a full-screen refresh every 24 hours for multi-color and color displays, and once per week for black-and-white displays.
Long-term storage: Refresh to all-white image before storage
