Sensing distance with an external IR sensor and displaying the value graphically on the display.Learning how to control the individual pixels on the display.Showing text and numbers on the display.Updating the board by adding the device library.
There is enough of memory provided with 256KB of SRAM and 2MB of Flash memory for quite large projects! This tutorial will cover This makes it an ideal starting board from those not interested in programming with blocks. The well supported RP2040 microprocessor can be programmed with the easy to learn and very popular MicroPython language using the free Thonny editor. The edge connector allows the user to interface, via alligator clips or an edge connector breakout board, with a wide variety sensors, displays, micro:bit add-ons and starter kits such as the Elecfreaks micro:bit Starter Kit or Kitronik Inventor’s kit. The rear has a small speaker for tones and beeps, a boot button for updating the device with a newer UF2 file and a power socket for a battery pack allowing use away from the computer. The front of the board sports two buttons, an LED hidden in the dot of the ‘i’ in 'Pico', and a large, bright 7x17 dot matrix display. The 'ed' part of the name stands for education. The Pico:ed is a development board based on Raspberry Pi RP2040 (the chip used on the Raspberry Pi Pico) but with the form factor of the very successful BBC micro:bit.
