LORDWORLD Universal E-Paper Driver HAT 40PIN SPI 3.3V/5V development board

SKU CH-QTNE-VYMEP

Universal e-paper driver HAT with 40-pin GPIO header drives SPI raw panels and includes 3.3 V / 5 V level shifting for Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano

  • Drives diverse Waveshare SPI e-paper panels from one board
  • Standard 40PIN GPIO header fits Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano
  • SPI interface connects Raspberry, Arduino and Nucleo controllers
  • Onboard voltage translator enables 3.3V and 5V MCU compatibility
  • Includes development resources with Raspberry Pi, Arduino and STM32 examples

Universal e-paper driver HAT

The LORDWORLD universal e-paper driver HAT connects raw SPI e-paper panels to a Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO header. It provides an onboard voltage translator for 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers and includes development examples for Raspberry Pi, Arduino and STM32 platforms.

Makers prototyping low-power displays

Suits hobbyists and engineers building shelf labels, badges or instrument panels that need persistent images without constant power. Not suited for projects requiring video-rate refresh, colour video output or touchscreen interaction.

Drives multiple panel sizes via SPI

The board handles the signalling and level shifting for a range of Waveshare-compatible raw panels, letting you swap sizes without redesigning the hardware. Limited to the panel resolutions and refresh rates supported by the connected e-paper modules themselves.

Questions about this item

Which host board with a 40PIN GPIO header do I need to plug this HAT into?

The HAT fits the standard 40PIN GPIO header on Raspberry Pi 4B, 4B+, 3B+, 3B, 2B+, Zero W, Zero WH and Jetson Nano boards.

Can I keep using my 5 V Arduino or Nucleo board to drive the e-paper panel through this HAT?

Yes, the onboard voltage translator makes the SPI interface compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers.

How can I verify the driver HAT is communicating with the panel after wiring it up?

Run the provided Raspberry Pi, Arduino or STM32 example code; the panel should refresh and display the test image if the SPI link is working.
