Tracked in Issue 35 this epaper took some trial and error to get it running since the Waveshare demo file did not have the right SPI commands. Only the black version is implemented but it won’t be hard to get the red/black working. It has a very nice resolution, costs almost the same as the V2 version 800*480, having 10% more resolution. Fonts render very nice using Adafruit GFX and our class.

Implementation test

#include <gdew075HD.h>
EpdSpi io;
Gdew075HD display(io);

extern "C" {
    void app_main();
}

void app_main(void)
{
   display.init(true);     // Activate debug
   display.setRotation(0); // Optionally change rotation

   // Write something
   display.setCursor(10,100);
   display.println("CalEPD the epaper component you can trust");

   // Type display.* to discover more of the inherited GFX functions fillCircle, fillTriangle, etc
