Embark on your next DIY electronics project with the Waveshare RP2040-Plus, a robust microcontroller board that extends the capabilities of the standard Raspberry Pi Pico. Powered by the Raspberry Pi RP2040, this board is equipped with a dual-core ARM Cortex-M0+ processor that operates up to 133MHz. With a substantial 264KB of SRAM and 2MB of onboard Flash memory, the RP2040-Plus provides plenty of room for your applications and data storage. This expanded version of the Pico enhances your projects with extra I/O options and increased functionality without sacrificing the compact and accessible design that makes the Pico so appealing.
The Waveshare RP2040-Plus stands out with its added features, including a micro-SD card slot for additional storage options, which is perfect for data logging or multimedia projects. It also offers a pre-soldered header, making it ready to use right out of the box with a breadboard or directly with other components. The board supports both C/C++ and MicroPython programming, appealing to a wide range of skill levels from beginners to advanced users. With an onboard Type-C USB port for power and data, and a comprehensive set of I/O interfaces including I2C, SPI, and UART, the Waveshare RP2040-Plus is a versatile tool for everything from robotics to custom controllers, smart home devices, and more.
