Raspberry Pi Pico
The Raspberry Pi Pico is a microcontroller development board designed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Unlike the traditional Raspberry Pi computers, the Pico is not a full-fledged computer but a powerful microcontroller designed for embedded systems and electronics projects. It features the RP2040 microcontroller chip, developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, which provides dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processors and a variety of I/O pins.
The Pico is compact, affordable, and designed to be easily integrated into various projects. It's programmable using the MicroPython and C/C++ programming languages, making it accessible to beginners and experienced developers. With its GPIO pins, analogue inputs, and support for various communication protocols like SPI, I2C, and UART, the Raspberry Pi Pico is suitable for sensor interfacing, motor control, IoT projects, and more. Its versatility, low cost, and active community support have made it a popular choice for electronics enthusiasts and professionals.
