The Raspberry Pi Pico is a low-cost microcontroller board from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It supports programming in CircuitPython, MicroPython, and C++. Please note this device uses 3.3V logic (not 5V) so not all Arduino circuit examples are compatible. The Pico uses a USB micro-B cable for programming or power. More details: Raspberry Pi Pico datasheet. Lab Part 1005.
