Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W
Overview
The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W is a compact evaluation board based on the RP2350 microcontroller, featuring integrated 2.4GHz 802.11n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 5.2. It offers a unique dual-architecture design allowing engineers to choose between dual Arm Cortex-M33 or dual RISC-V Hazard3 cores running at up to 150 MHz.
Why Choose This Part
The board provides exceptional architectural flexibility with switchable Cortex-M33 and RISC-V cores, paired with a robust 520KB SRAM for complex applications. Integrated wireless connectivity and a wide input voltage range from 1.8V to 5.5V make it highly adaptable for battery-powered or USB-hosted projects.
Applications
Getting Started
Develop using the C/C++ SDK or MicroPython/CircuitPython, with full support for VS Code and Raspberry Pi Debug Probe. The 40-pin DIP-style package with castellated holes allows for both breadboard prototyping and direct SMT soldering to carrier boards.
Also Consider
Arduino
- Offers integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth via the ESP32-S3 with native Arduino IDE support.
Raspberry Pi
- A cost-effective alternative using the older RP2040 silicon for applications that do not require the RP2350 performance or RISC-V cores.
