Newt: a low-power, open-source, 2.7-inch IoT display powered by the ESP32-S2 module and powered by Sharp’s Memory in Pixel (MiP) screen technology

Overview

Newt is a battery-operated, always-on, wall-mounted display that can retrieve weather, calendars, sports scores, to-do lists, quotes...anything on the internet! It is powered by the ESP32-S2 microcontroller and you can program it using Arduino, CircuitPython, MicroPython or ESP-IDF.

We think Newt is the next step in the evolution of low-power display panels. Sharp's Memory in Pixel (MiP) technology is ideal for manufacturers, avoiding the slow refresh times associated with E-Ink displays. To support timers and alarms, we also added a real-time clock (RTC). Finally, we designed the Newt with battery operation in mind—every component on the board was chosen for its ability to run with low power consumption.

How does a RISC core generally start execution?
How does a RISC core usually start up and execute the binary code compiled by the assembler and sent to its instruction memory? In other words, where does the hardware fetch the first instruction?
Ripple Filtering Issues
The company has a product that uses a high-power stepper motor. The working current of the motor is about 300mA. Because it is a stepper motor, the ripple interference to the power supply is very larg
Simple disassembly of 8-port MEMS optical switch array
This is my first official post, so I’m a little nervous. Let me share the disassembly of a less common device. At the beginning of the year, the team bought an 8-port MEMS optical switch array, a prod
ARM and touch screen
Can a touch screen with a resolution of 640*480 only be connected with ARM9? Can it be connected with ARM7? All the ones I found online are connected with ARM9! [:'(]
