====== lamaPLC: Raspberryes ====== The RP2040 is a small, specially engineered silicon chip developed by Raspberry Pi to serve as the central controller for electronic devices. The Raspberry Pi Pico is a compact green circuit board centered on the RP2040 chip, featuring a USB port, storage memory, and pin connections. This design allows for easy connection to a computer, enabling programming to control electronics such as sensors, lights, and motors. ^Feature^RP2040 (The Chip)^Pi Pico (Standard)^Pi Pico H^Pi Pico W^Pi Pico WH^[[#rp2040-zero|RP2040-Zero]]^RP2040-ETH| ^Manufacturer|Raspberry Pi|Raspberry Pi|Raspberry Pi|Raspberry Pi|Raspberry Pi|Waveshare|Waveshare| ^Dimensions|7 × 7 mm|51 × 21 mm|51 × 21 mm|51 × 21 mm|51 × 21 mm|23.5 × 18 mm|51 × 21 mm| ^Flash Storage|0 MB|2 MB|2 MB|2 MB|2 MB|2 MB|4 MB| ^USB Connector|None|Micro-USB|Micro-USB|Micro-USB|Micro-USB|USB Type-C|USB Type-C| ^Wireless (Wi-Fi/BT)|None|None|None|2.4GHz Wi-Fi & BT 5.2|2.4GHz Wi-Fi & BT 5.2|None|None| ^Wired Network|None|None|None|None|None|None|RJ45 Ethernet Port| ^Header Pins|None|Unsoldered (Bare pads)|Pre-soldered|Unsoldered (Bare pads)|Pre-soldered|Unsoldered (Castellated)|Unsoldered| ^Debug Connector|None|None|3-pin JST-SH|None|3-pin JST-SH|None|None| ^Onboard Light|None|Green LED|Green LED|Green LED|Green LED|RGB NeoPixel|None| ^Usable GPIO Pins|30|26|26|26|26|29|14| ^Logic Voltage (GPIO)|3.3V|3.3V|3.3V|3.3V|3.3V|3.3V|3.3V| ^Input Voltage (VBUS/VIN)|N/A (Requires exact 1.1V & 3.3V)|1.8V to 5.5V|1.8V to 5.5V|1.8V to 5.5V|1.8V to 5.5V|5.0V (via USB-C or 5V pin)|5.0V (via USB-C or 5V pin)| ^Software Support|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython, CircuitPython|C/C++, MicroPython (with special build)| ^Network Libraries|None|None|None|network (Wi-Fi), bluetooth|network (Wi-Fi), bluetooth|None|wiznet / custom CH9120 drivers| ^Primary Usage|Custom circuit design & commercial products|Learning code, DIY hobbies, basic automation|Prototyping without a soldering iron|Smart home, wireless IoT, web servers|Wireless IoT without a soldering iron|Tiny gadgets, wearable tech, macro pads|Hardwired network devices, industrial IoT| ==== RP2040-Zero ==== {{ :raspberry:rp2040_zero_01.png?120|RP2040-Zero}} The RP2040-Zero is an ultra-compact, low-cost microcontroller development board designed by Waveshare. It is built around the Raspberry Pi RP2040 silicon chip, squeezing the processing power of a standard Raspberry Pi Pico into a tiny form factor roughly the size of a postage stamp.
