The IL0373 is a tri-color display controller for ePaper displays. Data is sent to the controller via SPI and supports partial screen updates.

The IL0373 is commonly paired with 1.54", 2.13" or 2.9" dual or tri-color ePaper displays of various resolutions.

Code Example

MicroGraphics graphics;

public override Task Initialize()
{
    Resolver.Log.Info("Initialize ...");

    var display = new Il0373(
        spiBus: Device.CreateSpiBus(),
        chipSelectPin: Device.Pins.D03,
        dcPin: Device.Pins.D02,
        resetPin: Device.Pins.D01,
        busyPin: Device.Pins.D00,
        width: 400,
        height: 300);

    graphics = new MicroGraphics(display);

    return Task.CompletedTask;
}

public override Task Run()
{
    //any color but black will show the ePaper alternate color 
    graphics.DrawRectangle(1, 1, 126, 32, Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black, false);

    graphics.CurrentFont = new Font12x16();
    graphics.DrawText(2, 2, "IL0373", Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black);
    graphics.DrawText(2, 30, "Meadow F7", Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black);

The IL0373 is a tri-color display controller for ePaper displays. Data is sent to the controller via SPI and supports partial screen updates.

The IL0373 is commonly paired with 1.54", 2.13" or 2.9" dual or tri-color ePaper displays of various resolutions.

Code Example

MicroGraphics graphics;

public override Task Initialize()
{
    Resolver.Log.Info("Initialize ...");

    var display = new Il0373(
        spiBus: Device.CreateSpiBus(),
        chipSelectPin: Device.Pins.D03,
        dcPin: Device.Pins.D02,
        resetPin: Device.Pins.D01,
        busyPin: Device.Pins.D00,
        width: 400,
        height: 300);

    graphics = new MicroGraphics(display);

    return Task.CompletedTask;
}

public override Task Run()
{
    //any color but black will show the ePaper alternate color 
    graphics.DrawRectangle(1, 1, 126, 32, Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black, false);

    graphics.CurrentFont = new Font12x16();
    graphics.DrawText(2, 2, "IL0373", Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black);
    graphics.DrawText(2, 30, "Meadow F7", Meadow.Foundation.Color.Black);

    graphics.Show();

    return Task.CompletedTask;
}
