Product description: Inkplate 6 with housing - e-paper display 6'' 800 x 600 px - ESP32 - for Arduino - Soldered 333233
Inkplate 6 by Soldered provides excellent display quality and advanced programming capabilities. The 6'' (800 x 600 px) e-paper display presents images in shades of gray and offers partial updates, making it an ideal solution for displaying text, images and simple graphics. The built-in ESP32 microcontroller enables wireless WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, allowing remote control of the device. Inkplate 6 is extremely energy efficient - in sleep mode it draws only 22 µA , which allows for long-term work on a single charge. The module can be programmed via Arduino (100% compatibility with Adafruit GFX) and Micropython , which facilitates integration and rapid prototyping. The device supports external microSD cards and offers additional GPIO connectors. Inkplate 6 has a housing printed in 3D technology.
In our offer you will also find other e-paper displays - we invite you to familiarize yourself with the available assortment!
