I consider C as the low-level programming among all the high-level programming languages.

Ironically, MicroPython is written in C.Įven though the Raspberry Pi Foundation promotes Python as the primary programming language for all the Raspberry Pi SBCs, things are quire different when it comes to Microcontrollers. If you are an old school hardware engineer (like I am) and has experience in writing firmware, then you will probably be more comfortable in C Programming Language rather than Python or MicroPython for writing applications / firmware.

Getting Started with Raspberry Pi Pico C SDK I strongly recommend you to complete those two tutorials to get familiar with Raspberry Pi Pico. These tutorials include some basics about Raspberry Pi Pico, the RP2040 Microcontroller, Pinout of Pico, programming environment, MicroPython and many other important topics. Bonus: Alternative to Unplugging and Plugging USB Cableīefore proceeding further, you need to go through two previous tutorials that I made for Raspberry Pi Pico called ‘ Getting Started with Raspberry Pi Pico’ and ‘ Programming Raspberry Pi Pico with MicroPython’.Getting Started with Raspberry Pi Pico C SDK.2 × UART, 2 × SPI controllers, 2 × I2C controllers, 16 × PWM channels.26 multifunction GPIO pins, including 3 analogue inputs.Dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor, flexible clock running up to 133 MHz.RP2040 microcontroller chip designed by Raspberry Pi.Pico is a low-cost and flexible development platform with the below specifications. Its tiny, fast, and versatile microcontroller board is based on an RP2040 chip designed by Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi Pico is a newly launched microcontroller by Rasberry Pi.
