Abstract

Display driver is a basic driver of a system, in order to port WINCE to the platform based on e-paper, we developed a E-paper driver for WINCE. This paper analyzed display characteristics of e-paper in detail and compared the Apollo controller with others. Considering the e-paper´s refresh rate is too slow, we put forward a specific solution - a passive-refresh display strategy for the display controller- which has a much better user experience than refreshing at a slow static rate. In the end, we implemented the e-paper device driver for WINCE platform, which satisfies screen printing perfectly.
