Pico 2 W with Color Soldered Header Compatible with Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W

Worth the price! This is even better than Marie Calendar's Pi. I plan to buy more. Thanks to all the little people that made this possible ᕦ(ツ)ᕤ You RoCk!

This was used to run a program that someone made to make my PS5 Controller run wireless on my PC and still get the full PS5 Haptics as I should if I am playing a PS5 style game game that was ported to PC or any game that was built for the PS5 that took the time to include the added Haptics when porting to PC. Like Deathloop. The controller works in bluetooth on the PC but I get basic rumble like an xbox controller, when I plug in the PS5 controller with USB I get full haptics in specific game that take advantage of the controller. This device and the program allowed me to go wireless with the PS5 controller on my PC. Super nice. make sure to 3D print a case or buy a 3d printed case to protect from shorting it out.

Works as intended the cable is long and the pins are on securely.

- pico 2 w, all good. - price: way too expensive. But when you need something fast, or nobody else has it in store, this works. I'm talking twice the normal price here.

Great little single board computer. I flashed my project code onto it and was to and running.

Great board for learning Micropython!

My son use these I have no idea what they do, but he saids they work excellent.

Pros: - Decent build quality - Includes programming cable with micro-USB connector - Excellent online documentation - Easy installation process - Colour pre-soldered header matches the pinout diagram - Beginner-friendly - Worked well with Thonny on Windows 11 Cons: - Onboard LED not working The UeeKKoo Pico 2 W with Colour Pre-Soldered Header Compatible with Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W RP2350 Microcontroller Board with 2.4GHz 802.11n Wifi 4 and BLE 5.2 has a decent build quality. This board adds wireless capabilities to the popular Pi Pico 2 board. A programming cable with a micro-USB connector is included. Before using the Pico 2W board, you need to install MicroPython by flashing it with a .uf2 file. It comes with great online documentation, and the link is included in the bootloader. The online documentation also tells you where to download the .uf2 file. This is so refreshing to see, as many MCU boards I have reviewed failed to include any documentation. It is really not that hard for the manufacturer to include an external documentation link in the bootloader as demonstrated by UeeKKoo. For beginners, the difference is day and night! After you download the .uf2 file, you can boot into the bootloader of the board by holding the "boot" button on the board before plugging it into the computer. Wait until a folder pops up before you release the button. Just drag the .uf2 file into this folder, and if everything is done right, the folder will close, and the board will reboot. I used Thonny to test the Pico 2W board under review. With the board already plugged into my Windows laptop, I opened Thonny and selected the proper COM port for the board in the lower-right corner. Then I ran a little MicroPython script, and everything appeared to work fine. from machine import Pin import time # Set up GPIO pin 0 as an output because GP25 pin 25 does not turn on the LED led = Pin(0, Pin.OUT) while True: led.value(1) # Turn on the LED time.sleep(3) # Wait for 3 second led.value(0) # Turn off the LED time.sleep(1) # Wait for 1 second Basically, I toggled the GP0 output pin for 3 seconds high and 1 second low repeatedly. I used my multimeter to measure the voltage on Pin 1 of the board and observed that the voltage stayed at 3.3V for 3 seconds and 0V for 1 second. So it appears the basic function of the board is working. I did not test the WiFi or Bluetooth wireless interfaces. The onboard LED, which is supposed to be on GP25 from the documentation, does not work. I am not sure why. That's why I needed to use a multimeter to measure the voltage on Pin 1 (GP0 output). Overall, the basic functions of the UeeKKoo Pico 2 W board appear to work well with Thonny on a Windows 11 laptop. I love the colour pre-soldered header since the colour matches exactly what is in the pinout diagram of the Pico 2W board. When I measured the voltage on Pin 1, it was easy for me to tell that Pin 3 was Ground because it is black in colour. It just makes the whole debugging process much easier when you reference the official pin-out diagram of the board. The colour-coded headers are nice touches! I love it! The fairly extensive online documentation provided just makes the product so much more beginner-user-friendly. Good job, UeeKKoo! A great acquisition for me!

This is an RP2350 board (looks like an original Raspberry Pico 2W board, with headers soldered on). No debug pins soldered, but it came with a 3 pin block (yellow) to solder yourself if desired. The board has a micro-USB connector, and a USB-A to micro-USB cable is supplied so you can power it. The distinctive feature of this Pico2W seems to be the colored header pins. Each type of pin has a different color (black=ground, dark green=GPIO, blue=ADC, red=power (5v+3.3v), lime green=system control). Even just looking at the power and ground makes it easier to find a desired GPIO pin. A very good idea for useability. Note that the colors are only visible if you have the pins pointing upwards. So if (for example) you have the board inserted into a breadboard, you won’t be able to see them. I did some trials (using Arduino IDE), and the board seemed to function with no issues. I think the Pico 2W board is a neat little board for hobbyists, and this variation with the colored headers is even better.

The Pi ecosystem is very mature at this point, and there are a ton of python libraries that abstract the board differences away, and examples to get even complex things working in minutes. The colour coded headers are a small thing, but I still remember my first experience with 555 ICs 30 years ago, having to find the little dot to get the orientation right. For a beginner, this simple gesture reduces one of the many questions that will pop up if something goes wrong. Included cable worked fine, and I was able to get the board running some sample code with a breadboard, some LEDs, and some resistors in minutes. The price is decent for a no-MOQ, quickly delivered and pre-soldered pi.

The board came pressed onto a piece of foam with a 3 pin terminal block that can be soldered into the debug connector, and a micro USB power cord. The 3 pin terminal block is small, and easily lost, and comes in the same bag as the board, so take care when removing the board so you don’t lose it. It appears to be an authentic raspberry pi Pico 2W board with the header pins pre-soldered. The soldering on the board is good. The pins are labeled via silkscreen and the headers are colour coded pin connections to help identify what pins you want. At a quick glance the colour coding helps you ensure correct board orientation. Knowing where the analog pins are (the blue ones) is also nominally useful. Beyond that the labels are useful to get more details. Since the listing doesn’t mention it, red = power, black = ground, green = GPIO, blue = analog, yellow = system control. I loaded micropython onto it and used that to connect to my wifi network and serve a webpage from which I could control the LED and read the board temperature. It looks like it will be a useful, low power device, for adding wireless connectivity to various DIY projects.

Great for small projects that involves wifi and bluetooth. The pre-soldered pins are great so it can be program and use right away. This module embed with wifi & bluetooth in 1 chip so its possible to run IOT of this thing. I like it and excited to use it to some of my projects.
