Description
What a cutie pie! Or is it... a QT Py? This diminutive development board features the powerful Raspberry Pi RP2040 chip, famous for its performance and versatility. The board maintains the same size, form factor, and pin-out as the original SAMD-based QT Py, while adding all the benefits of the RP2040 microcontroller.
This board comes with a USB Type C connector, 264 KB RAM, and 8 MB SPI Flash chip for storing CircuitPython, MicroPython code, or other applications. It includes a built-in RGB NeoPixel LED and 13 GPIO pins, offering numerous sensors and accessory capabilities with a convenient STEMMA QT connector for plug-and-play I2C compatibility.
Features include:
- RP2040 dual-core Cortex-M0+ processor running at ~125 MHz
- 8 MB external SPI Flash memory for code and file storage
- 264 KB on-chip SRAM
- USB Type C connector with native USB support for serial console, MIDI, HID, and more
- Built-in RGB NeoPixel LED
- 13 GPIO pins with multiple ADC channels, I2C, SPI, UART, PWM, and PIO compatibility
- STEMMA QT connector for easy sensor and accessory hookup without soldering
- Reset and bootloader buttons for quick firmware programming
- 3.3V regulator with 600mA peak output
- Compact size: 21.8mm x 17.8mm x 5.8mm, weight: 2.2g
The QT Py RP2040 is ideal for projects requiring a small footprint with powerful processing, excellent software support including CircuitPython, MicroPython, Arduino, and C/C++ SDKs, and flexible peripheral options.
