Raspberry Pi Pico 2
Overview
The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is a high-performance microcontroller board powered by the RP2350, featuring a unique selectable architecture between dual ARM Cortex-M33 and dual Hazard3 RISC-V cores. It significantly upgrades the original Pico with 520KB of on-chip RAM, 4MB of external QSPI flash, and a comprehensive security suite including Arm TrustZone and signed boot.
Why Choose This Part
The board provides 26 multi-function GPIO pins and 16 PWM channels in a compact 21mm by 51mm form factor. It offers a unique migration path for developers to experiment with RISC-V architecture on the same hardware used for traditional ARM development.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Development is supported through the C/C++ SDK or MicroPython, with full compatibility for VS Code and the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe. Engineers can utilize the 8KB of antifuse OTP memory to store security keys and enable the secure boot ROM for production-ready designs.
Also Consider
Raspberry Pi
- The original RP2040-based board for applications that do not require the upgraded security features or higher clock speed of the RP2350.
Arduino
- Provides the RP2040 ecosystem with integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and an IMU in a similar small form factor.
