Pervasive Displays has announced the general availability of the first two products in the Spectra family of three-pigment (black, white and red) e-paper displays (EPDs).
There is growing demand for EPDs with additional colour as a means of enhancing retailers’ ability to attract consumers in an environment of constantly changing market conditions. The Spectra EPD is able to quickly draw attention to specific messages on a device or signage, and is particularly useful in applications such as electronic shelf labels, industrial, smart card, signage and identification badges.
Two sizes of this active matrix, TFT glass substrate display are available with wide viewing angle of 180°. Model E2287ES051 is a 2,87” display providing a resolution of 296 x 128 and pixel density of 112 dpi, and the larger model E2417ES053 is a 4,2” display with 400 x 300 resolution and 120 dpi pixel density. In both displays the pixel arrangement is vertical and the surface of the display features an anti-glare treatment. Accordingly, Spectra EPDs are able to display fine graphics and patterns to maximise visibility, recognition and impact.
Extra thin and very light, the Spectra EPD uses an SPI interface and features a fine-tuned embedded waveform for enhanced optical performance. The embedded waveform can be custom configured to meet the needs of different customers and applications. Due to their bistable nature, these panels require very little power to update and use zero power to maintain an image. The displays are able to operate over an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 40°C and breakage detection is supported.
