Description

The RPi Pico W microcontroller board has a compact size of 51mm x 21mm (2.0in x 0.83in) that includes the RP2040 MCUMicrocontroller Unit (Datasheet) with a Dual-Core Arm Cortex M0+ 133MHz processor and 264KB of SRAMStatic Random Access Memory

The board has 2MB of Flash memory, an Infineon Cypress CYW43439 wireless SoCSystem On a Chip (Datasheet PDF), and internal antenna that provides 2.4GHz 802.11IEEE 802.11 is a set of protocol standards that define communication for a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). In order for WiFi to work between different devices, they all need to agree on how they are going to communicate. The current version of the standard is IEEE 802.11-2007, with many amendments such as 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n.b/g/n WiFi up to 96Mbps and Bluetooth 5.2 (BDRBasic Data Rate 1Mbps, EDREnhanced Data Rate 2/3Mbps, and BLEBluetooth Low Energy). The onboard antenna is licensed from ABRACON (formerly ProAnt) and the CYW43439 wireless SoC is connected to the RP2040 over SPISerial Peripheral Interface.

The RPi Pico W board comes with a Micro-B USB connector for power and communication with a computer. The board can be powered from 1.8V to 5.5V DC with a USB power supply or VSYS pin

The I/OInput/Output pins are all 3.3V and includes

26x multifunctional GPIOGeneral Purpose Input Output pins with 16x PWMPulse-Width Modulation
3x analogue inputs with a 12-bit ADCAnalog-to-Digital Converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D)
2x UARTUniversal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter, 2x I2CInter-Integrated Circuit. Also referred to as IIC or I²C., and 2x SPISerial Peripheral Interface serial communication ports

The RPi Pico WH is the same as the Pico W, but with headers soldered onto the sides of the board and a 3-pin 1.0mm pitch JSTJapan Solderless Terminal SH top entry connector for SWDSerial Wire Debug soldered on the end of the board.
