UART, I2C, SPI Default Pin

In Arduino IDE, the default pins of serial port are Pin0 and Pin1.

Note

Serial port is virtualized by RP2040. Therefore, when using the serial port, please enable the verification function of DTR. It can work under any baud rate.

Raspberry Pi Pico 2

Raspberry Pi Pico 2 uses RP2350 chip as the main controller, which equipped with dual Cortex-M33 or Hazard3 processors, capable of running up to 150 MHz, providing a significant boost in processing power, compared with the original pico. It also doubles the memory with 520KB of SRAM and 4MB of onboard flash memory, with the ADC sampling frequency increasing to up to 500ksps. In addition, it adds 8 more PWM channels, and features additional interfaces like 2× Timer with 4 alarms, 1× AON Timer and 4 x PIO.
