Pico Inky Pack

Pico Inky Pack features the speedy 2.9" e-paper display that you can find on Badger 2040, coupled with three handy buttons for interfacing. Equip it to the back of your Pico or Pico W to give it a classy, readable display (and +1 to crispness). This screen leaves plenty of pins free on the Pico, so it's ideal for combining with other Packs, sensors or breakouts.

Your Pico will need to have pin headers soldered to it (with the pins pointing downwards) to attach to Pimoroni's add-on boards.

RP2040 x E Ink®

Electronic paper makes for a lovely, crisp, high contrast display that's readable even in bright sunlight and it doesn't squirt unnecessary blue light into your environs like LCDs do. It's also ultra low power (EPD displays only consume power while they're refreshing), and the images on the display stick around for a really long time whilst the display is unpowered.

Using a RP2040 chip means we can drive the hardware in fun, experimental, low level ways. Pimoroni have written custom drivers for the EPD display that prioritise low power consumption whilst enabling lightning fast refresh rates.
