Small rectangular e-ink display HAT with 2.13 inch red black white screen and pin header

LORDWORLD

LORDWORLD 2.13inch E-Ink Display HAT (B) 212x104 development board

SKU CH-3DVS-XN5HT

A 2.13 inch e-ink HAT shows red, black and white at 212 by 104 pixels, retains its image without power and plugs into Raspberry Pi Zero or larger boards via SPI with 3.3 volt or 5 volt logic

  • Three-colour e-ink shows red, black and white images
  • 212 x 104 pixel resolution gives sharp text and graphics
  • SPI interface connects directly to Raspberry Pi Zero or larger boards
  • Onboard voltage translator allows 3.3 V or 5 V logic levels
  • Display retains last image without power or backlight

Compact three-colour e-paper HAT

This 2.13inch E-Ink display HAT from LORDWORLD provides a 212x104 resolution panel that shows red, black and white pixels without a backlight. It targets makers and developers who need a low-power, sunlight-readable screen for Raspberry Pi projects or other microcontroller platforms. The embedded controller handles refresh timing over a standard SPI interface.

Fits Pi Zero to Pi 3B+ via GPIO

The board plugs directly onto Raspberry Pi Zero, Zero W, Zero WH, 2B, 3B and 3B+ models using the GPIO header and communicates through the SPI bus. An onboard voltage translator allows operation with both 3.3V and 5V logic levels. Preserved solder pads expose the same SPI lines so the display can be wired to Arduino, Nucleo or similar boards instead. No backlight means the last image remains visible after power is removed.

Suits portable or always-on readouts; not for video

Developers building badge displays, sensor dashboards, shelf labels or other static-content devices will benefit from the persistent image and minimal current draw. The three-colour palette and 212x104 pixel grid limit detail, so the board is unsuitable for animations, graphics-heavy interfaces or applications requiring fast refresh rates. Buyers needing higher resolution, full colour or video-speed updates should consider alternative display technologies.

Questions about this item

How many full-screen refreshes can the 2.13 inch E-Ink display sustain before ghosting becomes visible?

The three-colour panel uses a 212 × 104 pixel matrix and an embedded controller; E-Ink technology is rated for millions of update cycles, so ghosting is not a practical limit under normal sustained use.

What is the steady-state power draw and heat output when the HAT refreshes continuously over SPI?

No backlight is fitted and the display holds its image without power; only the SPI transactions and onboard 3.3 V / 5 V voltage translator consume energy, producing negligible heat during all-day operation.

Which Raspberry Pi models and GPIO headers must I already own to plug this HAT in directly?

The board matches the 40-pin header on Raspberry Pi Zero, Zero W, Zero WH, 2B, 3B and 3B+; any of those models with the standard GPIO populated will work immediately.
