Pico
The Raspberry Pi Pico is a microcontroller board based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller chip.
Figure 1. The
Raspberry Pi Pico
Rev3 board.
Raspberry Pi Pico has been designed to be a low cost yet flexible development platform for RP2040, with the following
key features:
•
RP2040 microcontroller with 2MByte Flash
•
Micro-USB B port for power and data (and for reprogramming the Flash)
•
40 pin 21x51 'DIP' style 1mm thick PCB with 0.1" through-hole pins also with edge castellations
◦
Exposes 26 multi-function 3.3V General Purpose I/O (GPIO)
◦
23 GPIO are digital-only and 3 are ADC capable
◦
Can be surface mounted as a module
•
3-pin ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) port
•
Simple yet highly flexible power supply architecture
◦
Various options for easily powering the unit from micro-USB, external supplies or batteries
•
High quality, low cost, high availability
•
Comprehensive SDK, software examples and documentation
For full details of the RP2040 microcontroller please see the RP2040 Datasheet, however the headline features are:
•
Dual-core cortex M0+ at up to 133MHz
◦
On-chip PLL allows variable core frequency
•
264kByte multi-bank high performance SRAM
