1Introduction
THOR_Spectra3100 demo Kit, with Spectra 3100 e-Paper display allows E Ink clients to
access hardware and software for evaluation. This kit demonstrates as a turnkey solution
for those who are interested in designing with E Ink displays. Hardware and software
design support is available from E Ink directly.
Spectra 3100 EPD is suitable for various applications, e.g. Electronic shelf labels
The low power consumption of the Spectra 3100 EPD is ideal for applications such as
electronic shelf labels and indicators.
An All-in-one IC is embedded in the EPD, it include source/gate driver, TCON(Timing
controller), PMIC(power management IC) and Temp. sensor. It allows users to rapidly
design systems by using E Ink displays.
The kit allows E Ink clients to experience loading and viewing custom images on Spectra
3100 EPD. The use of MCU board to drive an E Ink EPD is demonstrated with the kit.
IAR Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is adopted to write, download, and
debug an application.
