Summary

In this chapter, we introduced you to the Raspberry Pi Pico. We discussed the peripherals of the RP2040 microcontroller and variants of the Pico development board from other hardware manufacturers. We also discussed the add-on hardware available for the Pico. We soldered the headers for the Pico and added a reset button. We also discussed a "Hello World!" example and an LED-blinking example using CircuitPython and MicroPython.

Now that you are done setting up the Pico and have familiarized yourself with the options available to program the Pico, we will discuss the features of the RP2040 microcontroller using practical examples.

Join us in the next chapter, where we will review the communication interfaces available on the Pico!
