RP2040 builds Raspberry Pi’s commitment to inexpensive, efficient computing into a small and powerful 7 mm × 7 mm package, with just two square millimetres of 40 nm silicon.
RP2040 is a 32-bit dual-core ARM Cortex-M0+ microcontroller designed by Raspberry Pi Ltd. In January 2021, it was released as part of the Raspberry Pi Pico board. [1]
It features the RP2040, which marks Raspberry Pi's first microcontroller designed in-house. Pico provides minimal (yet flexible) external circuitry to support the RP2040 chip. The majority of the RP2040 microcontroller pins are brought to the user IO pins on the left and right edge of the board.
With detailed documentation, a polished MicroPython port, and a UF2 bootloader in ROM, the RP2040 has the lowest possible barrier to entry for beginner and hobbyist users. RP2040 is a stateless device with support for cached execute-in-place from external QSPI memory.
The article discusses the RP2040 microcontroller, launched by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in 2021. Featuring a dual-core ARM Cortex-M0+ processor, 264KB RAM, and 2MB flash, it is cost-effective and energy-efficient, suitable for robotics, IoT, and more.
The RP2040 is a Microcontroller Unit (MCU) introduced by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It serves as the core component for the Raspberry Pi Pico and other development boards.
Initially only available onboard the Raspberry Pi Pico, it is now available to buy as a standalone microprocessor chip for your own home-made RP2040 PCB designs, industrial applications and more - in handy packs of 5. The RP2040 microcontroller comes in a QFN-56 package.
Whether you have a Raspberry Pi Pico 1 or another RP2040-based microcontroller board, everything you need to get started is here. You’ll find support for getting started with C/C++ or MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico, and links to resources for other boards that use RP2040.
This article covers the Raspberry Pi RP2040 device, an arm Cortex-M0+ dualcore MCU with up to 133 MHz Clock. It is the first MCU designed and published by Raspberry Pi.
