The MCU interface mode can be set by hardware selection on BS1 pins.
4.2" e-Paper 7-3-2-2) MCU Serial Interface (4-wire SPI) The 4-wire SPI consists of serial clock SCLK, serial data SDIN, D/C#, CS#. In SPI mode, D0 acts as SCLK, D1 acts as SDIN. Function CS# D/C# SCLK Write Command L L ↑ Write data L H ↑ Table 7-2: Control pins of 4-wire Serial Peripheral interface Note 7-4: ↑stands for rising edge of signal SDIN is shifted into an 8-bit shift register in the order of D7, D6, ...

4.2" e-Paper 7-3-2-3) MCU Serial Interface (3-wire SPI) The 3-wire serial interface consists of serial clock SCLK, serial data ADIN and CS#. In 3-wire SPI mode, D0 acts as SCLK, D1 acts as SDIN, The pin D/C# can be connected to an external ground. The operation is similar to 4-wire serial interface while D/C# pin is not used. There are altogether 9-bits will be shifted into the shift register on every ninth clock in sequence: D/C# bit, D7 to D0 bit.

4.2" e-Paper 9-3) Reflection Ratio The reflection ratio is expressed as: R = Reflectance Factor white board x (L center / L white board) L center is the luminance measured at center in a white area (R=G =B=1). L white board is the luminance of a standard white board. Both are measured with equivalent illumination source. The viewing angle shall be no more than 2 degrees.
