Note 5-1: This pin (CS#) is the chip select input connecting to the MCU. The chip is enabled for MCU communication only when CS#
is pulled Low.

Note 5-2: This pin (D/C#) is Data/Command control pin connecting to the MCU. When the pin is pulled HIGH, the data will be
interpreted as data. When the pin is pulled Low, the data will be interpreted as command.
Note 5-3: This pin (RES#) is reset signal input. The Reset is active Low.
Note 5-4: This pin (BUSY) is Busy state output pin. When Busy is Low, the operation of chip should not be interrupted and any
commands should not be issued to the module. The driver IC will put Busy pin Low when the driver IC is working such as:
- Outputting display waveform; or
- Programming with OTP
- Communicating with digital temperature sensor
Note 5-5: This pin (BS1) is for 3-line SPI or 4-line SPI selection. When it is “Low”, 4-line SPI is selected. When it is “High”, 3-line SPI
(9 bits SPI) is selected. Please refer to below Table.

After the Power Off command, the driver will power off following the Power Off Sequence. This command will turn off charge
pump, T-con, source driver, gate driver, VCOM, and temperature sensor, but register data will be kept until VDD becomes OFF.
Source Driver output and Vcom will remain as previous condition, which may have 2 condition: 0V or floating.

This command starts transmitting data and write them into SRAM. To complete data transmission, command DSP (Data transmission
Stop) must be issued. Then the chip will start to send data/VCOM for panel.
In B/W mode, this command writes “OLD” data to SRAM.
In B/W/Red mode, this command writes “B/W” data to SRAM.
In Program mode, this command writes “OTP” data to SRAM for programming.

- The standby power is the consumed power when the panel controller is in standby mode.
- The listed electrical/optical characteristics are only guaranteed under the controller & waveform provided by Good Display.

7-3-2-1) MCU Interface Selection
In this module, there are 4-wire SPI and 3-wire SPI that can communicate with MCU. The MCU interface mode can be set by hardware
selection on BS1 pins. When it is “Low”, 4-wire SPI is selected. When it is “High”, 3-wire SPI (9 bits SPI) is selected.

SDIN is shifted into an 8-bit shift register in the order of D7, D6, ... D0. The data byte in the shift register is written to the Graphic Display
Data RAM (RAM) or command register in the same clock. Under serial mode, only write operations are allowed.

7-3-2-3) MCU Serial Interface (3-wire SPI)
The 3-wire serial interface consists of serial clock SCLK, serial data ADIN and CS#.
In 3-wire SPI mode, D0 acts as SCLK, D1 acts as SDIN, The pin D/C# can be connected to an external ground.
The operation is similar to 4-wire serial interface while D/C# pin is not used. There are altogether 9-bits will be shifted into the shift
register on every ninth clock in sequence: D/C# bit, D7 to D0 bit. The D/C# bit (first bit of the sequential data) will determine the
following data byte in shift register is written to the Display Data RAM (D/C# bit = 1) or the command register (D/C# bit = 0).Under
serial mode, only write operations are allowed.

9-2) Definition of contrast ratio
The contrast ratio (CR) is the ratio between the reflectance in a full white area (R1) and the reflectance in a dark area (Rd)() :
R1: white reflectance
Rd: dark reflectance
CR = R1/Rd

9-3) Reflection Ratio
The reflection ratio is expressed as :
R = Reflectance Factor white board x (L center / L white board )
L center is the luminance measured at center in a white area (R=G =B=1) . L white board is the luminance of a standard white board. Both are
measured with equivalent illumination source . The viewing angle shall be no more than 2 degrees.

10. Handling, Safety And Environmental Requirements
WARNING
The display glass may break when it is dropped or bumped on a hard surface. Handle with care.
Should the display break, do not touch the electrophoretic material. In case of contact with electrophoretic material, wash with
water and soap.
CAUTION
The display module should not be exposed to harmful gases, such as acid and alkali gases, which corrode electronic components.
Disassembling the display module can cause permanent damage and invalidate the warranty agreements.
Observe general precautions that are common to handling delicate electronic components. The glass can break and front surfaces can
easily be damaged. Moreover the display is sensitive to static electricity and other rough environmental conditions.
Data sheet status
Product specification
The data sheet contains final product specifications.
Limiting values
Limiting values given are in accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System (IEC 134).
Stress above one or more of the limiting values may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only and operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in the Characteristics
sections of the specification is not implied. Exposure to limiting values for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Application information
Where application information is given, it is advisory and dose not form part of the specification.

Note: (1) The protective film must be removed before temperature test.
(2) There’s temperature vs display quality limitation in our display module, we guarantee 1 pixel display quality from
5℃ ~ 30℃, and 2 pixel display quality for 0℃~ 5℃ & 30℃ ~ 40℃.
(3) In order to make sure the display module can provide the best display quality, the update should be made after putting the
display module in stable temperature environment for 15 mins.
