Product Showcase: SparkFun Pro Micro RP2350

The SparkFun RP2350 Pro Micro provides a powerful development platform in SparkFun's compact Pro Micro form factor, built around the RP2350 from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. This board uses the updated Pro Micro form factor. It includes a USB-C connector, Qwiic connector, WS2812B addressable RGB LED, Boot and Reset buttons, resettable PTC fuse, and PTH and castellated solder pads.

Notwithstanding the demo, I absolutely LOVE Drew's monitor!

In 2024, they really needed to include wifi on the base Pico 2 to compete with ESP 32s. I may get a Pico 2 W depending on the price.

The demo should have included switching between the ARM and RISC-V processors. Or both single-core ARM and RISC-V working at the same time. Also, is there a SWD debug interface that will work with the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe?

Hi Rob, Thank you for this presentation. Your energy and enthusiasm are wonderful. I have one concern about the 2350 and the RPI Pico. That is the power supply. I wish to use the 2350 for rf (hf) applications. But rumor on the street has it that the power adapter on the RPI Pico is very noisy. Is this true with the Sparkfun version ?

Sweet! Are you planning to release a MicroMod version of this?

[AdrianBoyko]

0:50 You can run one core of each type? That seems unlikely. 🤔

How many boxes were used to create that background? Has this already been asked...

Cool RPi BTW

Can you make the following; encase a Pico 2350 into a 52 pin DIP package with full 5V level shifting, at least 40GPIO and USB host available (5 full 8-bit ports in logical arrangement) and sell it as "chip"?

[jesset]

Is there a link to the code in this video?

[TT-itgg]

OOPS! The chip and board are good. But the demo is...
RP2040 can do 125Mhz PIO SPI. Not sure if RP2350 can do or not.
The camera picked is slow.... No good for demo.
You can get much better performance on ESP32 S3 with 24Mhz camera interface for that specific demo.
Go on!

Never before I heard Es-Pee-Eye pronounced as "spy".

What is the deep sleep power consumption?

[accursedshrek]

Hmm. I wonder why it has two sets of cores.
