1.8 Inch E Paper E Ink Display 224×168 Resolution 24pin Low Power E Ink Display

The HINK-YE018A11 E-PAPER display module excels in ultra-compact high-definition scenarios with its 2-color display and 158 DPI resolution. It presents clear black-and-white information, making it ideal for mini electronic shelf labels, smart wearables, and portable terminals. Its square pixels (0.161×0.161mm) and high resolution ensure sharp text and graphics, even small fonts (6pt) remain legible. The hard-coat antiglare surface eliminates glare under direct sunlight, maintaining readability in retail stores, logistics warehouses, or outdoor kiosks. With an ultra-thin (0.9mm) and lightweight design, it fits seamlessly into space-constrained devices like smart nameplates and handheld scanners, while low power consumption (≤3μA deep sleep) ensures long battery life without frequent replacements.

The HINK-YE018A11 E-PAPER display module has a wide range of applications across multiple industries. In retail, it serves as micro electronic shelf labels for small-sized products (e.g., cosmetics, stationery), using black-and-white display to present product names, prices, and basic information—enabling customers to quickly identify key details. Its low power consumption (≤3μA deep sleep) eliminates frequent battery replacements, reducing retail maintenance costs. In logistics and warehousing, it functions as tiny cargo tags, displaying waybills, destination details, and inventory statuses, while withstanding transportation temperatures of -25~50℃. In smart wearables and portable devices, its ultra-compact size and weight fit into fitness trackers, smart badges, and handheld terminals, serving as a low-power information display—showing steps, heart rate, or device statuses. Additionally, in industrial control, it works as small equipment status monitors, using black-and-white contrast to indicate normal and fault states—supporting landscape/portrait modes to adapt to different device layouts. With ROHS2.0+HF+REACH compliance and rigorous reliability testing, it meets environmental and long-term use requirements in diverse scenarios.

The HINK-YE018A11 supports Black/White 2-color full-display with excellent contrast performance: white state L*≥66, black state L*≤20. Its 158 DPI high resolution and square pixels (0.161×0.161mm) deliver sharp text and fine graphics—ideal for displaying small fonts, barcodes, or detailed icons. The high reflectance and contrast ratio (calculated as white area reflectance divided by dark area reflectance) ensure clear visibility even in low-light environments, while the pure reflective mode eliminates backlight power consumption. The hard-coat antiglare surface reduces glare under direct sunlight, maintaining readability in outdoor or bright indoor scenarios (e.g., retail store windows, outdoor kiosks). With an ultra-wide viewing angle, there is no color/brightness deviation from any direction, supporting multi-person viewing for scenarios like shared equipment monitors.

Based on bi-stable display technology, the module only consumes power during screen refresh—panel power consumption is 80 mAs (at 25℃), while deep sleep mode current is ≤3μA. When paired with a standard lithium battery, electronic shelf labels refreshed once daily can operate for over 12 months without replacement. The integrated on-chip booster generates VCOM, Gate (VGH/VGL), and Source (VDHR/VSH/VSL) driving voltages internally, reducing external circuit complexity and optimizing power efficiency. It also supports low-voltage detection (LVD) to monitor battery status (VDD: 2.3~3.6V) and high-voltage ready detection to prevent abnormal operation due to insufficient driving voltages, ensuring stable performance in power-fluctuating environments. The internal/external temperature sensor (I2C interface) enables real-time temperature monitoring and waveform adjustment, maintaining display stability under temperature fluctuations (0~40℃).

The HINK-YE018A11 features an ultra-compact outline dimension (45×32×0.9mm) and lightweight design, enabling seamless integration into space-constrained devices like smart wearables and mini electronic shelf labels. It has passed rigorous reliability tests, including 240-hour high-temperature (40℃) and low-temperature (0℃) operation, 100 temperature cycles (-25℃~60℃), 168-hour high-temperature high-humidity (40℃, 90%RH) operation, and ESD testing (machine model: ±250V). The hard-coat screen is scratch-resistant and fingerprint-resistant, while ROHS2.0+HF+REACH compliance meets global environmental standards. With a designed service life of 3 years (under normal use: 25℃/50%RH, updated once daily), it meets long-term use requirements in industrial, retail, and logistics fields. The flexible FPC with bending area (as per mechanical drawing) simplifies installation in devices with non-flat layouts.

The module supports 3-wire/4-wire SPI interfaces (selectable via the BS pin) and I2C for internal/external temperature sensors, compatible with most microcontrollers, PLCs, and embedded systems—no complex driver development required. The SSD1680 driver IC offers stable signal processing, while the 24-pin 0.5mm ZIF Socket and easy-to-tear sticker design ensure secure and convenient installation. For customers not using external temperature sensors, relevant pins can be grounded (per Note 6-6), simplifying circuit design. Additionally, it offers customizations like FPC length, cover glass processing, and waveform parameters to meet specific application needs—such as adjusting VCOM voltage (OTP-programmed) for optimized contrast in different scenarios, or customizing FPC bending areas for non-flat device layouts.
