Current and Future Projects: Transitioning from Raspberry Pi Pico W to Pico 2 with PicoBricks

by PicoBricks Team 09 Aug 2024

The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is coming soon! So, what makes this microcontroller a step beyond the previous model’s success? Equipped with the RP2350 microcontroller, this new model offers a significant leap in speed, memory capacity, and processing power. With doubled RAM and flash memory, combined with support for both Arm Cortex-M33 and RISC-V cores, the Pico 2 becomes an ideal option for both hobby projects and professional developments.

Moreover, this new model not only excels in performance but also brings significant improvements in security and compatibility. Arm TrustZone and advanced security architecture provide a secure foundation for your projects, while full compatibility with the previous Pico series allows easy integration of new features into your existing projects. In short, the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is the best step you can take for future projects today!

How Can PicoBricks Users Benefit from This Innovation?

The dual-core, dual-architecture nature of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 (Arm Cortex-M33 and Hazard3 RISC-V) allows for more complex and high-performance tasks in PicoBricks projects. The 512KB SRAM and 4MB flash memory provide significant advantages, especially for CircuitPython projects, enabling work with larger files and creating more sophisticated projects.

The modular structure and broad compatibility of PicoBricks, combined with the new features of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2, open doors to more powerful projects. With three PIO blocks and the ability to generate high-speed output signals, PicoBricks enables you to develop more complex and professional projects.

Superior Performance in Security

When designing products in PicoBricks projects, security is always a top priority. The advanced security features of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2, such as Arm TrustZone, SHA-256 acceleration, hardware-based TRNG, and fast glitch detectors, enhance the security of your projects. The fact that these features are transparently and accessibly documented for all users provides a significant advantage in increasing security for your projects.

Preparing for the Future

For PicoBricks users, the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 offers a great opportunity to prepare for future projects. Its programmability in C/C++ and CircuitPython/MicroPython allows you to easily transition your existing knowledge to the new platform. The backward compatibility means you can update your current projects with the new technology and move on to more advanced applications.

In Conclusion:

The Raspberry Pi Pico 2, with its new features and enhanced security structure, offers a fantastic opportunity to take your PicoBricks projects to the next level. Start exploring this new product with PicoBricks to gain more flexibility and performance in your existing projects, and prepare for future endeavors!
