1 General Description
1.1 Overview
This is a 2.7” a-Si, active matrix TFT, Electronic Paper Display (EPD) panel. The
panel has such high resolution (117 dpi) that it is able to easily display fine patterns.
Due to its bi-stable nature, the EPD panel requires very little power to update and
needs no power to maintain an image.
1.2 Features
- a-Si TFT active matrix Electronic Paper Display(EPD)
- Resolution: 264 x 176
- Ultra low power consumption
- Super Wide Viewing Angle - near 180°
- Extra thin & light
- SPI interface
- RoHS compliant
1.3 Applications
- Electronic shelf label (ESL)
- Reusable container
- Badge

Note (3): Refresh time is the time that e-paper particles move not including the
power on and off time. The refresh time is measured at 25ºC.The refresh
time and contrast ratio varies due to different films, display performance
requirements, and ambient temperatures.
Note (4): Contrast ratio (C.R.): The Contrast ratio is calculated by the following
expression. C.R. =(R% White) / (R% Black). Reflectance is measured
at 120 seconds after refresh.

6.2.2 Ghosting
Below are two test methods to verify that ghosting within an acceptable range.
Test 1 and Test 2 use measured data to calculate Delta E which is a single
number representing the distance between two colors in a 3 dimensional color
space. Test 1 and Test 2 are performed at 25ºC.
y Test 1: White to Black Ghosting
y Test 2: Black to White Ghosting
The formula is used to calculate Test1 and Test2. For example of Test 2:
ᇞE*ab = [ (LB – LB’)2 + (aB – aB’)2 + (bB – bB’)2 ]1/2

8 Precautions
(1) The EPD Panel / Module is manufactured from fragile materials such as glass and
plastic, and may be broken or cracked if dropped. Please handle with care. Do not
apply force such as bending or twisting to the EPD panel during assembly.
(2) It is recommended to assemble or install EPD panels in a clean working area. Dust
and oil may cause electrical shorts or degrade the protection sheet film.
(3) Do not apply pressure to the EPD panel in order to prevent damaging it.
(4) Do not connect or disconnect the interface connector while the EPD panel is in
operation.
(5) Please support the bezel with your finger while connecting the interface cable such
as the FPC.
(6) Do not stack the EPD panels / Modules.
(7) Do not press the FPC on the glass edge or Pull FPC up / down to 90°.
(8) Do not touch the FPC lead connector.
(9) Wear a Wrist Strap (Grounding connect) when handling and during assembly.
Semiconductor devices are included in the EPD Panel / Module and they should be
handled with care to prevent any electrostatic discharge (ESD). (An Ion Fan may
be needed in assembly operation to reduce ESD risk.)
(10) Keep the EPD Panel / Module in the specified environment and original packing
boxes when storage in order to avoid scratching.
(11) Do not disassemble or reassemble the EPD panel.
(12) Use a soft dry cloth without chemicals for cleaning. The surface of the protection
sheet film is very soft and easily scratched.
(13) Be mindful of moisture to avoid its penetration into the EPD panel, which may
cause damage during operation.
(14) High temperature, high humidity, sunlight or fluorescent light may degrade the EPD
panel’s performance. Please do not expose the unprotected EPD panel to high
temperature, high humidity, sunlight, or fluorescent for long periods of time. It is
highly recommended to store the EPD panel in a dark place without condensation,
a temperature range of 15ºC to 35ºC, and humidity from 30%RH to 60%RH.
(15) The ink used for marking the Panel ID number is erased easily by solvent. Please
avoid using solvent to clean the EPD panel.
(16) The EPD is vacuum packed.
(17) Before approved by PDI and customer, products and product specifications may be
subject to change without notice. Confirm that you have received the latest product
standards or specifications before final design, purchase or use.
(18) PDI makes every attempt to ensure that its products are of high quality and
reliability. However, contact PDI sales office before using the product in an
application that demands especially high quality and reliability or where its failure
or malfunction may directly threaten human life or cause risk of bodily injury, such
as aerospace, aeronautics, nuclear power, combustion control, transportation,
traffic, safety equipment or medical equipment for life support.

(19) Design your application so that the product is used within the ranges guaranteed
by PDI particularly for maximum rating, operating supply voltage range, heat
radiation characteristics, installation conditions and other characteristics. PDI bears
no responsibility for failure or damage when used beyond the guaranteed ranges.
Even within the guaranteed ranges, consider normally foreseeable failure rates or
failure modes in semiconductor devices and employ systemic measures such as fail
safes, so that the equipment incorporating PDI product does not cause bodily injury,
fire or other consequential damage due to operation of the PDI product.
(20) This product is not designed to be radiation resistant.
