Electronic paper display and method for booting up electronic paper display

Abstract

An Electronic Paper Display (EPD) includes a central processing unit (CPU), an EPD screen, a first storage storing applications, an EPD controller. The EPD controller is configured for running the stored software applications and controlling the EPD screen to display visual information. The EPD further includes a second storage and a temporary controller. The second storage is configured for storing files capable of being displayed on the EPD screen during the process of booting up the EPD. The temporary controller is configured for determining whether the process of initializing the CPU is finished during the process of booting up the EPD, and further configured for starting the EPD controller, copying the files from the second storage, and delivering the files to the EPD controller to display if the process of initializing the CPU is not finished.
