Features

Multi-color EPD displays, like the ones on Inky pHAT, use ingenious electrophoresis to pull colored particles up and down on the display. The colored particles reflect light, unlike most display types, meaning that they're visible under bright lights. The black/white display can be refreshed very quickly, in just a second or two.

Everything comes fully-assembled, and there's no soldering required! The display is securely stuck down to the Inky pHAT PCB and connected via a ribbon cable. Just pop Inky pHAT on your Pi and run the installer to get everything set up!

It'll work with any 40-pin version of the Pi, including Pi Zero and Pi Zero W.

Software

The Python library takes the stress out of displaying text and images on Inky pHAT, and our examples include a cute clock and weather display. We've put together a one-line-installer for the Python library too, to make installation a little more straightforward.

You can find full details of how to use the Python library in the Getting Started with Inky pHAT tutorial.
