Description
The Raspberry Pi Pico is an entirely new type of microcontroller from Raspberry Pi. Small, cheap, and flexible – it’s excellent for learning to code with MicroPython!
This is the standard Raspberry Pi Pico – which comes without any headers fitted. You can also purchase our pre-soldered Raspberry Pi Pico here.
Whether you want to learn about the MicroPython programming language, take your first steps in physical computing, or build a hardware project, the Raspberry Pi Pico and its fantastic community will support you every step of the way. We also have a great range of accessories for the Pico!
Raspberry Pi Pico is designed for physical computing projects where it can control familiar components such as LEDs, buttons, sensors, motors, and even other microcontrollers.
The Pico can be quickly and easily programmed using MicroPython and C/C++ using popular editors such as Thonny. Getting started is also very easy, thanks to the dedicated Getting Started page.
You can program your Pico from your computer, a Raspberry Pi 4, or even another Raspberry Pi Pico!
