Product Description

While the news-breaking launch of the Raspberry Pi Pico is still fresh in our minds, here is another launch of a tiny but powerful development board in the world of microcontroller boards on the footprint of Raspberry Pi  Pico from Arduino officials.

Arduino named it “Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect” a newly launched Microcontroller board welcoming the Raspberry Pi’s RP2040chip on which NANO connect has been built. The Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect shares a similar form factor to the Raspberry Pi Pico, but it includes extra functionality, chiefly WiFi and Bluetooth along with a 9-axis IMU sensor and microphone.

Arduino also broke the news that they will be porting the Arduino IDE for use with the RP2040 chip. This is welcome news for C/C++ developers and embedded hobbyists alike.
