Raspberry Pi Pico was released in January of this year. This was a first for everyone: the Raspberry Pi's first microcontroller-class board, and the first to be based on the RP2040, a microprocessor created. Simultaneously, Raspberry Pi unveiled RP2040-based devices from a many companies Check Now.
The RP2040 is Now Available for $1Raspberry Pi revealed the natural next step today, June 1st, 2021: RP2040 chips are now available in single-unit numbers, letting you to construct your own projects and products on Raspberry Silicon.
RP2040 MicrocontrollerBased on years of utilising other manufacturers' devices in our own products and projects, the RP2040 is our vision of the ideal mid-range microcontroller. It distinguishes itself in three ways:
I/O flexibility. All of the standard interfaces are available, including hardware UARTs, SPI and I2C controllers, USB 1.1, and a four-channel ADC. However, it is the programmable I/O (PIO) subsystem that distinguishes the RP2040, allowing software implementations of protocols like as SDIO, DPI, I2S, and even DVI-D.
- Two quick CPU cores. A pair of ARM Cortex-M0+ cores running at 133 MHz give sufficient integer performance. Use one core to execute application code and the other to oversee hardware, or use FreeRTOS or MicroPython to execute application code on both cores.
- There is plenty of RAM. With 264KB of RAM, you may focus on creating features rather than reducing the size of your programme. A fully linked switch connects ARM cores and DMA engines to six distinct RAM banks, allowing you to extract every last bit of performance from the system.
All of this is crammed into a 77 mm QFN56 package made of 2 mm2 of 40 nm silicon.
RP2040 the microcontroller
Most recently adding FreeRTOS support. And hundreds of people were waiting for RP2040,
The RP2040 costs $1 per unit, so you get a lot of bang for your (actual) buck.

The lifeblood of the Raspberry Pi and maker communities is the first and third component accessories. They provide new features and make it easier to complete projects.
SB Components, a UK-based official Raspberry Pi Reseller, was the first to market. They have launched 17 new Pico accessories, ranging from basic breakout boards that allow several addons to be utilised for DIY projects to exploring the potential of the Raspberry Pi Pico, and a Pico LoRa™ Expansion board, which comes with an onboard CH340 USB TO UART converter, Voltage Level Translator(74HC125V), E22-900T22S SMA antenna connector that covers 868MHz & 433MHz frequency band.
