Raspberry Pi Pico is a newly launched microcontroller by Rasberry Pi. Its tiny, fast, and versatile microcontroller board based on an RP2040 microcontroller designed by Raspberry Pi. Pico is a low-cost and flexible development platform with the below specifications.
Specifications :
- RP2040 microcontroller chip designed by Raspberry Pi
- Dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor, flexible clock running up to 133 MHz
- 264KB on-chip SRAM
- 2MB on-board QSPI Flash
- 26 multifunction GPIO pins, including 3 analog inputs
- 2 × UART, 2 × SPI controllers, 2 × I2C controllers, 16 × PWM channels
- 1 × USB 1.1 controller and PHY, with host and device support
- 8 × Programmable I/O (PIO) state machines for custom peripheral support
- Supported input power 1.8–5.5V DC
- Operating temperature -20°C to +85°C
- The castellated module allows soldering directly to carrier boards
- Drag-and-drop programming using mass storage over USB
- Low-power sleep and dormant modes
- Accurate on-chip clock
- Temperature sensor
- Accelerated integer and floating-point libraries on-chip
Getting Started with Micropython :
- Press and hold the BOOTSEL pin then plug in the USB port to the PC.
- Download the Micropython UF2 file by clicking the below link.
- Release BOOTSEL pin once connected pico is connected with PC.
- It will mount as mass storage named as "RPI-RP2"
- Drag and drop downloaded micropython UF2 file on RPI-RP2 storage, it will reboot pico board. your pico is now running micropython.
