  • Castellated edges allow direct soldering to carrier boards for compact embedded integration

RP2040 Microcontroller Board

The Raspberry Pi Pico is a low-cost microcontroller board built around the RP2040 chip designed in the United Kingdom. It features a dual-core Arm Cortex M0+ processor with a flexible clock running up to 133 MHz. The board provides 264 KB of SRAM and 2 MB of on-board Flash memory for program storage. Its castellated module design allows direct soldering to carrier boards for embedded integration.

Hobbyists and embedded engineers

This board suits developers who need a compact, programmable platform with flexible digital interfaces for custom hardware projects. The 26 multi-function GPIO pins support 2 × SPI, 2 × I2C, 2 × UART, 3 × 12-bit ADC, and 16 controllable PWM channels. Buyers who require built-in wireless connectivity, higher processing throughput, or an operating system environment should look at alternative platforms. The USB 1.1 interface provides device and host support along with drag-and-drop programming via mass storage.

RP2040 dual-core processor

The defining specification is the RP2040 microcontroller with its dual-core Arm Cortex M0+ architecture running up to 133 MHz. This processor includes 8 Programmable I/O state machines for custom peripheral support and accelerated floating-point libraries on-chip. An accurate clock, timer, and temperature sensor are integrated alongside low-power sleep and dormant modes. Verify that the 264 KB SRAM and 2 MB Flash capacity align with your firmware requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

What spacing do the castellated pads use so I can match them to a carrier board?

The castellated module pads follow a standard pitch so the board can be soldered directly onto a carrier board or used with headers.

How do I load code onto the RP2040, and what is the step beginners often miss?

Hold the BOOTSEL button while plugging the USB 1.1 cable in; the board appears as a mass-storage device, then drag the UF2 file onto it — forgetting to hold BOOTSEL is the common mistake.

What will need replacing on the Pico after extended use?

The on-board 2 MB Flash memory handles all firmware storage, so no separate memory module requires replacement; only the board itself would be swapped if it fails.
