Adds epdsi, a
no_stddriver framework for Electronic Paper Displays.Most EPD crates bind one driver IC to one panel. epdsi separates panel
description, controller register logic, and SPI transport, so one API covers
seven driver ICs and ten panels: SSD1680, SSD1681, SSD1677, UC8253, JD79661,
ED2208, and the Pervasive Displays COGs — spanning monochrome, tri-colour,
quad-colour, and 7-colour ACeP.
Why the released list rather than WIP
The guidance asks for "a short blog post, article, or sufficiently explanatory
README showing an example of its use", ideally demonstrating the device in a
small project a newcomer could follow. epdsi has:
overview, and the panel/controller support table.
separate repos — rust-rpico2-discovery (RP2350 Pico 2,
rp-hal, blocking)and rust-reterminal-e1002-examples (XIAO ESP32-S3,
esp-hal+ Embassy,async). Same driver crate on both Cortex-M and Xtensa.
low-RAM targets, and the hardware gotchas.
Happy to move the entry to the WIP section instead if you'd prefer.
Notes
embedded-hal1.0; MSRV 1.75.photo of all ten running.
embedded-graphicssupport viaDrawTarget, and optionaldefmt.prior submission for epdsi.
