Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller.RP2040 microcontroller
The Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller is based on a dual-core ARM Cortex M0 + processor. There is 264 KB of SRAM on board, 30 GPIO pins, including a 12-bit four-channel ADC. One of the more important functions of RP2040 is programmable IO, which can execute custom programs to manipulate GPIO pins. They also allow data transfer between peripheral devices - they can offload tasks that require high data transfer speeds.
