It comes with Wi-Fi connectivity for the first time, opening up a variety of projects for developers
A year ago, the Raspberry Pi Foundation unveiled the Raspberry Pi Pico, a $4 microcontroller designed for physical computing projects. Easily programmed using MicroPython, it was designed for tasks like controlling lights, buttons, sensors, motors, and even other microcontrollers.
Raspberry Pi has added a wireless module to its Pico microcontroller board, giving it 802.11n Wi-Fi capability - all for $6. Pico W, as it will be known, i
The popular $4 microcontroller board gets a $2 wireless upgrade.
Raspberry Pi has added wireless connectivity to its low cost pico board as well as pre-soldered headers and a debug interface. The $6 pico W board (above) adds the Infineon (Cypress) CYW43439 wireless system on chip for 802.11n wireless networking with complete pin compatibility with the first $4 pico board. The software is key for […]
