English Botland blog version, ignition on! If you are suprised of the fact that it’s already 30th Edition – we wrote in Polish so far, now it’s time to reach out further than only to our kinsmen and non-natives who speak and read in Polish.<\/b><\/p>\n

New products<\/h2>\n

What’s new at Botland <\/em>series (original title: Nowo\u015bci w Botland<\/i>) are periodical articles published every two weeks.\u00a0They have already become quite popular with our blog readers.<\/p>\n

Raspberry Pi Pico world premiere<\/h2>\n

The Raspberry Pi<\/a><\/b> Foundation has just come up with a new proposal for us. Here’s an amazing minimization to the limit while maintaining the best performance. Raspberry Pi Pico is a humble sized module with a custom RP2040 microcontroller made in the UK. That’s a great pit-stop during the wait for RPi 5!<\/p>\n

This isometric projection may be misleading as to the size of this Raspberry Pi baby.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For a comparative scale, look at Agata’s hand below.<\/p>\n

RP2040 Raspberry chip is based on ARM Cortex M0+ clocked at 133 MHz. The module has 264 kB of SRAM memory and 2 MB of Flash memory. It is equipped with 26 GPIO pins that operate at 3.3 V and a temperature sensor. Raspberry Pi Pico can be programmed in C\/C++, and we make it happen conveniently through a microUSB connector.<\/p>\n

Pico <\/a><\/b>can also be programmed in MicroPython programming language. We have included a practical mini tutorial for you, accompanied by GIFs – it’s on the product page. First steps shouldn’t be difficult even for complete beginners. In addition, manufacturer has provided a repository for C language, and Python is yet to come in today’s episode – we will feature it for sure.<\/p>\n

Xiaomi Mi SmartBand 5
<\/h1>\n<\/h2>\n

Xiaomi SmartBand 5<\/a><\/b> is all about an AMOLED touchscreen display with comfortable 126 x 294 pixel res. Smartband uses magnetic charging technology, so the whole process can take place without having to pull out the pill. However, associated with the widely understood life style, smartband is also a specific analytical tool.\u00a0<\/p>\n
