Everyone should be familiar with ink screen. In order to restore the reading experience of paper books and protect eyes, many reading products support ink screens, such as Kindle and WeChat reading.

Recently, Xiaomi Youpin Mall put an electronic ink screen calendar on the shelves:

To tell the truth, this finished product looks as beautiful as the calendar of Xiaomi Youpin Mall.

It can also be seen from the finished product that the production of electronic ink screen calendar is divided into hardware and software.

The hardware is mainly screen, computing unit, power supply, etc. The software mainly includes development framework, development tools, class libraries used and some basic services.

In such electronic products, the screen may be the most expensive hardware. Here we choose a screen with a resolution of 648*480 based on SPI interface.

Just replace the Key of your windy weather API in the source code, then burn the program into the development board, fix it in the frame with hot melt adhesive and other tools, and connect the power supply. A poisoned chicken soup electronic ink screen calendar is completed.

It is strongly recommended that interested students try DIY and make a calendar of their own.
