Download Raspberry Pi Pico Datasheet

The Raspberry Pi Pico is a microcontroller board having a small size with dimensions of 51mm x 21mm x 1mm. RP2040 chip is featured on this board. This board has a Micro USB port that facilitates both data and power supply. Also, this board is low-cost and flexible. Dual-castellated pins are featured by the edges of RPi Pico. This chip’s design is suitable for DIP and surface mount module, whatever is required. The Raspberry Pi Pico features 40 Pins (2.54mm / 0.1” pitch grid). It is attuned with both breadboard and Veroboard as it has 1mm small holes. Also, the mechanical fixing is held by 4x drilled mounting holes (2.1mm / approx. 0.05mm).
