Description
Raspberry Pi Pico W delivers wireless connection including both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2, on the basis of the flexible Raspberry Pi Pico Microcontroller, bringing more possibilities. It equips Raspberry Pi 2040(RP2040) chip, providing good quality and satisfactory performance in microcontrollers, providing both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and yet offered at a relatively low price. All of which makes it perfect for beginners to electronics. Since the wireless connection is incorporated, it can be widely developed and deployed in more IoT scenarios, such as appliance control, security supervising, and other wireless applications.
Raspberry Pico W with Wi-Fi & Bluetooth is a microcontroller where you can utilize its physical computing and wireless communication to control components wirelessly such as sensors, LEDs, motors or you may want to connect other microcontrollers to build some great and exciting projects. Unlike the single-board computer(SBC) Raspberry Pi, Pico W has not installed an operating system, instead, it can be directly programmed to use, which makes it easier to control compared to an SBC. If you want to get to know electronics, this microcontroller with wireless communication will present you with the intuitive feeling of mastering electronics.
There are 30 multi-function GPIO pins on the Pico W, including communication like I2C, SPI, UART, 8 programmable I/Os and so on. Equipped with enhanced an RP2040 chip, it can perform everything you need in IoT wireless controlling projects. And because of its small size, it is very suitable for edge & embedded applications. With comprehensive C/C++/Micropython SDKs, multiple software examples and documentation, it offers beginners a pretty simple way to use and get started with microcontrollers, allowing for quick positive programming feedback.
If you were looking for thumb-sized microcontrollers equipped with this tiny RP2040 chip for even smaller controlling applications, or you want to it connect wirelessly. The seeed studio XIAO series, seeed studio XIAO RP2040 and seeed studio XIAO BLE will fill your need.
