Robust and reliable
I've used this for several IoT prototypes. Power consumption is low and it handles sensors very well.

Perfect for learning embedded systems
This kit is exactly what I needed to start my MicroPython journey. The board is compact and the documentation is easy to follow.

Great board, headers not included
The Pico itself works flawlessly. Just be aware you might need to solder your own pin headers depending on the specific kit version you receive.

Excellent value for money
Cannot beat the price point for the performance you get. Dual cores make multitasking much easier than single-core competitors.

Good but needs extra accessories
The board is fine, but I wish the kit came with a USB cable and breadboard. Had to buy those separately.
Q: Does it support Bluetooth?
A: No, the standard Pico does not support Bluetooth. You would need the Pico W model for Bluetooth Low Energy support.
Q: What is the maximum input voltage?
A: The VSYS pin allows an input voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V. Please do not exceed this to avoid damaging the board.
Q: Does this board have built-in WiFi?
A: No, the standard Raspberry Pi Pico does not have WiFi. Please look for the Raspberry Pi Pico W if you require wireless connectivity.
Q: Is this compatible with the Arduino IDE?
A: Yes, you can program the RP2040 using the Arduino IDE by installing the appropriate board manager packages.
Q: Can I power it via the USB port?
A: Yes, the board can be powered directly through the micro USB port when connected to a computer or USB power adapter.
