5. Operating Principles: Advantages of E-Ink Displays
E-Ink displays, also known as e-paper, utilize microcapsule electrophoresis technology. This technology involves charged nanoparticles suspended in a liquid that migrate under the action of an electric field, forming a display that closely resembles traditional printed paper. The primary advantages of e-ink screens include:
- Konsumsi Daya Ultra-Hésé: Power is primarily consumed only during display refreshes, not for maintaining a static image.
- Teu aya Lampu Latar: E-Ink displays are reflective, relying on ambient light, which makes them easy on the eyes and visible in bright conditions.
- Persistent Display: Content remains visible for extended periods even when power is removed.
- lebar Viewdina Angle: Wawaran a viewing angle greater than 170 degrees, similar to paper.
