anyone have experience driving e-paper/e-ink displays? can they be used without special driver boards? for example, if i have an AVR microcontroller and a bitmap in ROM, can i output that bitmap to the screen by sending the right signals to its pins?

pic related, some epaper displays come with just ribbon cables, others come mounted on driver circuitry boards (i'm interested in the former).

Have a read of the datasheet. They are available online. It will tell you how to drive the display, and you can decide if your choice of microcontroller will suffice
