## Description

The Adafruit SHARP Memory Display Breakout features a 2.7" 400×240 monochrome LCD that combines the ultra-low power consumption of e-paper with the fast refresh rates of a traditional LCD. The larger display area and higher resolution make it ideal for detailed information displays, showing crisp black pixels on a grey background with an e-reader style appearance. The bare display is mounted on a breakout board with a 3 V regulator, 5 V boost converter, and level shifting, making it compatible with both 3 V and 5 V power and logic. Communication requires only 3 SPI pins (write-only), but the entire 400×240 pixel framebuffer (~13.5 KB) must be stored in the microcontroller's RAM. Key Features 2.7" 400×240 Monochrome Display – Black-on-grey, e-reader style appearance with high resolution Ultra-Low Power – E-paper-like power consumption with LCD-like refresh speed Daylight Readable – No backlight, but highly visible in ambient light SPI Interface – Write-only, requires only 3 data pins 3 V / 5 V Compatible – Onboard 3 V regulator, 5 V boost converter, and level shifting ZIF Socket Mounting – Display connects via ZIF socket with double-sided tape adhesion 4 Mounting Holes – Easy to attach to enclosures Important: This display requires approximately 13.5 KB of RAM for the framebuffer. It is not compatible with ATmega328 (Arduino UNO) or ATmega32u4 (Feather 32u4) boards due to insufficient RAM. Use a higher-RAM board such as ATSAMD21 (Feather M0), ESP8266, ESP32, or similar. Also Consider SHARP Memory Display 1.3" 168×144 – Smaller version requiring only ~3 KB RAM Ideal For Low-power information displays and dashboards Outdoor-readable status panels and signage Battery-powered wearable or portable displays E-reader style interfaces with high resolution Package Contents 1× SHARP Memory Display Breakout (2.7" 400×240, fully assembled) Note: This display does not have a backlight. For dark environments, external LED illumination is needed. Resources Adafruit SHARP Memory Display Guide
