E-ink word clock watch
This is a research page for my project to make a watch with an e-ink screen displaying word clock.
Requirements
- Refresh e-ink screen (ie. update word clock) every ~ 3 minutes
- Be able to set the time or sync it via WiFi/Radio?
- Capable or running for > one month
Interfaces
- SPI
- Serial for debugging / flashing?
Parts
- e-eink module Requiring 3.3 V, SPI and has refresh power req. of 26.4 mW with standby power of < 0.0 17 mW
- Coin cell** / lithium battery small enough? (if powerful enough)
Prototyping
Use a e-ink breakout board with the preferred $MCU to display a simple "hello world" text every three minutes and measure the power usage.
