Flying the ORD7; climbing thru 10;000 FT did not stay at 250 KTS (as it states on the departure plate) but accelerated to 300 KIAS. Would NOT have missed the restriction if I had been using paper plates (mine have the restriction highlighted)! But was using the I-pad and had the zoom in function in use for the brief (we both did and both missed the 250 KIAS restriction). Have added a note book for station info that I have started to use to avoid this in the future.
While briefing the ORD7 Departure; I failed to notice the 250 speed restriction on the plate because I zoomed in to better visualize the altitude restrictions on the center of the departure plate. I did not read the entire departure down in the lower right corner of the plate or the upper right corner. Above 10;000 FT we accelerated to 300 KIAS per climb profile and ATC queried about our speed. We confessed our speed and slowed down to 250 KIAS.Failed to read the entire departure procedure. The 250 KIAS restriction is something new to the ORD7 DEP since I had last flown it. I think the iPad may have been a contributing factor because the ORD7 is a 2 page departure; therefore font is small but this does not excuse me from not reading the entire procedure.
An Air Carrier crew departed on the ORD7 and accelerated to 300 knots because they had zoomed in on the iPad looking at the altitude restrictions and missed the speed constraint because it would outside of the selected viewing area during the brief.
