Note: I am still in the process of writing the firmware and mechanical design
Custom designed e-ink smartwatch with 2 weeks of battery life! The watch uses a PIC MCU with a built in RTC module and attached to an external temperature and humidity sensor via SPI bus to display data to the user on a e-ink screen. The time/date and off-times are set, aswell as the sensors calibrated through USB 2.0 by the user through python scripts. The watch is enclosed is a 3D printed shell designed using solidworks.
Features
- 2 Week Battery Life: Use low power components and efficient firmware to maximize battery life
- Power Switching and Protection: USB power can simulatenously charge the battery and power the watch. Battery overchage protection provided by a management IC and over discharge protection via mosfet controlled by the PIC.
- USB 2.0 Communication: User can ineract with the MCU through USB to set the time/date, calibrate the altitude sensor and determine at which times to power down their watch (for greater battery life).

Questions
How big is the E INK Watch PCB?
It measures 31.8 × 36.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the E INK Watch use?
53 parts, built around the DPS310, S-1318B33-M5T1U4, MBR0530 and AO3418. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the E INK Watch KiCad files?
From the DomenicHampson/EnkWatch repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is E-INK Watch/E-INK Watch.kicad_pcb and its schematic E-INK Watch/E-INK Watch.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the E INK Watch design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask DomenicHampson before reusing the design.
