RASPBERRY PI PICO Raspberry Pi Pico, RP2040, Cortex-M0+, microUSB

At the heart of the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller board is a custom Raspberry Pi designed chip called RP2040 with a133 MHz clocked ARM Cortex-M0+ dual core with integrated 2 MB QSPI flash memory for code and data storage.

You can program your Pico by simply connecting it to a computer/notebook via USB and then transferring a previously downloaded UF2 file, which makes it easier to install MicroPython. You can get detailed info and the file at https://pico.raspberrypi.org/getting-started/.

Micropython is a complete implimentation of the Python 3 programming language, you get an interactive prompt (REPL) to execute commands instantly via USB Serial and an integrated file system.

Note

- This board is currently offered by the Raspberry Pi Foundation exclusively as a tape & reel product (board in ESD-compliant plastic packaging). - Delivery without pin header(s), see "Accessories & Alternative Products". - While plugging the Pico into a USB port, it is mandatory to press the BOOTSEL button on the board and only release it when the board is plugged into the USB port.
