Note: This basic kit is compatible with the latest Raspberry Pi Pico 2. Of course, please choose the version with pre-soldered headers (by Cytron).

This is a Raspberry Pi Pico Basic Kit packed by Cytron Technologies for the MCU Boards (Pico 2, Pico W, Pico) from the Raspberry Pi. The kit includes almost everything you need to kickstart your way in digital making and start learning MicroPython with the Raspberry Pi Pico series of boards!

Released on the 21st of January 2021, the Raspberry Pi Pico is the 1st Microcontroller Development Board from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It is also based on the 1st Microcontroller IC/Silicon - RP2040, designed and produced by Engineers from the Raspberry Pi team. Raspberry Pi has been very popular in producing Single Board Computer since the launch of Raspberry Pi 1 in February 2012. Now, the engineering team has delivered another great news for digital makers around the world, a microcontroller development board.

Here are some highlighted features of Raspberry Pi Pico 2:

Here are some highlighted features of Raspberry Pi Pico:

Unlike the previous Raspberry Pi boards, Pico is more for physical computing projects where it controls anything from small electronic components, LEDs, and motors; reads information from sensors, or communicates with other microcontrollers. It can be reprogrammed over a USB connection. Based on the Official Get Started with MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico-Color Printed, a comprehensive guide from Raspberry Pi to kickstart with this new MCU platform, this Raspberry Pi Basic Kit kit is perfect for you and even your kids to start learning programming at an early stage. With this kit, you can pave your way into digital making and physical computing.
