Use cases that provide USB usually have rich connectivity, and the USB host function allows device compatibility and further customization of the application depending on the requirements. Also, the industry demands efficiency in applications related to connected control systems at a lower cost with CAN
Since the recent launch of Pimoroni Pico LiPo that came with the Raspberry Pi’s in-house silicon tape out RP2040, the hobbyist electronics company based in the UK has continued to work with the tiny powerful MCU to release PGA2040 – a breakout board. “The PGA2040
Pimoroni’s Pico LiPo is USB-C powered and programmable, with a whopping 16MB of QSPI (XiP) flash memory. A stream of RP2040-powered boards are now available in the market ranging from Adafruit’s QT Py RP2040 being the smallest while Adafruit’s Feather RP2040 is the largest in
Arduino announced that its IDE will now support Raspberry Pi RP2040 chips using the Arduino Mbed core. This means that programmers will no longer have to use the unofficial board plugins in the Arduino IDE to program their Raspberry Pi Pico. In the initial launch
Robot Operating System or better known as ROS is a fully open-source operating system for robots. It is more of a meta operating system that helps to abstract the hardware from the software. The main idea behind it is to avoid continuously reinventing the wheel
Adafruit QT Py RP2040 is a tiny dev board that comes with the powerful Raspberry Pi RP2040. The main idea behind this board is, “Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately!” It saves your time and lets you build your projects quicker. Diving into
The award-winning EdTech start-up Piper has introduced the first drag and drop programming platform for all newbies and students to play with Raspberry Pi Pico, also available on your Chromebooks, Macs, and PCs – Piper Make. The increasing popularity of the Raspberry Pi Pico due to its powerful
Many companies have come up with their Raspberry Pi RP2040 boards. Adafruit being one of them has unveiled its two boards featuring RP2040 SoC. Meet Adafruit Feather RP2040, and Adafruit ItsyBitsy RP2040 supporting the CircuitPython port for programming. The boards would be an interesting combination
Yet another development board with RP2040 SoC, ArduCam has announced its Arducam Pico4ML dedicated to machine learning applications. The silicon-based RP2040 SoC being a cost-effective solution to support edge computing with low-power specifications. We also saw Arduino’s RP2040 Nano Connect Board which aims at combining
We saw the popular Raspberry Pi Pico featuring RP2040 SoC and its functionalities. Talking off the record, there has always been a competition between Raspberry Pi and Arduino boards. Still, the demand for the powerful low-power RP2040 chip has led to a collaboration between the
