UC8151D Tri-Color E-Paper

The UC8151D Tri-Color E-Paper is an SPI device in the LabWired part catalog. Its catalog type is uc8151d_tricolor_290. It connects to the MCU over SPI. The catalog gives a supply range of 2.3–3.6 V. It has 8 pins. A registered peripheral model runs in the engine: the firmware talks to it over the real bus and gets device-accurate responses.

From the catalog: Registered PeripheralKit (device_type uc8151d_tricolor_290 in packages/ui peripherals manifest).

How to simulate the UC8151D Tri-Color E-Paper in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the UC8151D Tri-Color E-Paper (catalog type uc8151d_tricolor_290).
  3. Connect VCC and GND to the supply and ground of the board. Use a supply inside the catalog range of 2.3–3.6 V.
  4. Connect CLK and DIN to the SPI pins of the board.
  5. Connect CS to the chip-select pin of the board, or to a free GPIO.
  6. Connect DC, RST and BUSY to free GPIO pins.
  7. Run the firmware. It selects the part and moves bytes over the simulated SPI bus as on hardware.
