Eben Upton and Nathan Seidle on the Raspberry Pi Pico, RP2040, and More
Elektor meets Eben Upton (Raspberry Pi) and Nathan Seidle (SparkFun) to discuss the Raspberry Pi Pico board, the RP2040 microcontroller, and SparkFun Electronics 's RP2040-based solutions.
In January 2021, the Raspberry Pi Foundation took the world by surprise when they launched their own microcontroller, the RP2040, and a development board to go with it, the Raspberry Pi Pico. Why did they do that? And why this microcontroller? In this video, we will try to get an answer to these questions by asking them to Sir Raspberry Pi, Eben Upton.
At the same time, the American manufacturer SparkFun launched three RP2040-based development boards. Nathan Seidle, the founder of SparkFun, tells us a bit more about these boards.
