Introducing the RP2040 Connect

In this section, we will introduce the RP2040 Connect from the Arduino foundation. The RP2040 Connect is a variant of the Pico in the Arduino Nano form factor. We like this board because it comes with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. It also comes with an onboard accelerometer, gyroscope, RGB LED, and a microphone. This provides tremendous opportunities for prototyping with the RP2040 Connect. The following diagram shows the pinouts for the RP2040 Connect (available for purchase from here: https://bit.ly/2YZClrY):
