Introducing Raspberry Pi Pico 2 (www.raspberrypi.com)

We’re happy to announce the launch of Raspberry Pi Pico 2, our second-generation microcontroller board, built on RP2350: a new high-performance, secure microcontroller designed here at Raspberry Pi.

With a higher core clock speed, twice the memory, more powerful Arm cores, new security features, and upgraded interfacing capabilities, Pico 2 delivers a significant performance and feature uplift, while retaining hardware and software compatibility with earlier members of the Pico series.

Pico 2 is on sale now, priced at $5.

And still USB micro. This is crazy to release a new board without USB-C in 2024… I guess I’ll wait for WaveShare’s boards to come out.

It would have been nice if they had a QFP version. QFN packages are a pain to solder without a stencil.
