It is all the time an thrilling day once we get to announce a brand new Raspberry Pi product, however it’s even higher once we get to place it on a SparkFun board (raspberries are crimson in any case)! At this time, we’re please to introduce you to the brand new RP2350 microcontroller featured on two new boards, SparkFun’s personal Professional Micro and the ever standard Raspberry Pi Pico 2! Because the launch of the RP2040 in 2021, Raspberry Pi has been on a roll with their concentrate on microcontrollers and we like to see the enhancements they’ve made on an already strong design. Let’s check out these two new boards!

The most recent Professional Micro that includes the brand new RP2350 is offered right this moment!

The SparkFun RP2350 Professional Micro gives a robust improvement platform in SparkFun’s compact Professional Micro kind issue, constructed across the RP2350 from the Raspberry Pi Basis. This board makes use of the up to date Professional Micro kind issue. It features a USB-C connector, Qwiic connector, WS2812B addressable RGB LED, Boot and Reset buttons, resettable PTC fuse, and PTH and castellated solder pads.

The RP3250 is a novel dual-core microcontroller with two ARM^® Cortex^® M33 processors and two Hazard3 RISC-V processors, all working at as much as 150 MHz! Now, this does not imply the RP2350 is a quad-core microcontroller. As a substitute, customers can choose which two processors to run on boot as a substitute. You possibly can run two processors of the identical sort or considered one of every. The RP2350 additionally options 520kB SRAM in ten banks, a bunch of peripherals together with two UARTs, two SPI and two I²C controllers, and a USB 1.1 controller for host and system help.

The Professional Micro additionally contains two expanded reminiscence choices: 16MB of exterior Flash and 8MB PSRAM related to the RP2350’s QSPI controller. The RP2350 Professional Micro works with C/C++ utilizing the Pico SDK and MicroPython improvement environments.

Now out there for pre-order, the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is a brand new, $5 microcontroller board from Raspberry Pi. It is constructed on the RP2350: a brand new high-performance, safe microcontroller additionally from Raspberry Pi. The RP2350 includes a larger core clock pace, double the on-chip SRAM, double the on-board flash reminiscence, extra highly effective Arm cores, elective RISC-V cores, new safety features, and upgraded interfacing capabilities. The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 delivers a major efficiency and have enhance, whereas retaining {hardware} and software program compatibility with earlier members of the Raspberry Pi Pico collection.

The RP2350 gives a complete safety structure, constructed round Arm TrustZone for Cortex-M, and incorporating signed boot, 8KB of antifuse OTP for key storage, SHA-256 acceleration, a {hardware} TRNG, and quick glitch detectors. These options, together with the safe boot ROM, are extensively documented and out there to all customers with out restriction. This clear strategy, which contrasts with the “safety via obscurity” provided by legacy distributors, permits skilled customers to combine RP2350, and Raspberry Pi Pico 2, into merchandise with confidence.

We’re past excited to get our arms on the brand new Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and create new tasks, however what do you wish to use it for? Are you excited to strive making one thing new with Raspberry Pi’s latest microcontroller? Tell us within the feedback under and we’ll discuss with you once more tomorrow with extra data on the SparkFun Unique RP2350 board!
