The Raspberry Pi foundation spent a lot of money to create a new chip on the Pi Pico board for makers and gives it away for cheap. If I believe all the fanboy’s videos, it is the most important invention after sliced bread. But how does it compare with the Espressif and STM32 chips? Let’s have a closer look!

I've been waiting for the microcontroller authority to chime in! Thanks for the review. Sounds about what I expected, and I'll be getting some when the stores restock. I think the Pi foundation created the RP2040 specifically so they could open source it. The Broadcom patents have been preventing fully open sourcing the other Pi boards. Modern microcontrollers seem to have really good datasheets, but nobody is entirely open source so far as I know. I vaguely recall hearing they even plan to release the RP2040 schematics. 😱

@@phillipneal8194 Something to consider is getting an ESP32 CHIP and hooking it's serial comm lines to the Pico. You can then use the USB interface on the Pico to program the Pico and the ESP32 (will require a little work, not too much, to forward Pico serial comms to ESP), and then either program the Pico and the EPS32 to work together, OR slave the Pico to the ESP32 by telling it to accept certain commands via serial and do stuff, for example get the Pico to do the motor control, and manage it via serial from the ESP32. I just picked up a couple of ESP32s and a couple of ESP-12Fs today for exactly that purpose - on my robot car, the ESPs will handle comms, display and LEDs, while the Pico handles motor control and sensors. In my case I've strapped a small cellphone battery pack to the rig which powers the pico, and the pico powers the ESP chips. I want to see if I can get away with the ESP-12Fs because of price, but when I need the extra GPIOs (and I eventually will) I'll use the ESP32. The Xiao M0 is slightly more expensive than the pico based on website pricing, and ~50% more expensive landed in my country (ZA). The pico solution will be cheaper and give you significantly more IO ports, power management, AND is only ~50% bigger.

thanks for the comparison. one point: i really think the PIO lines are useful: as you can program them as I2S this makes up for the lack of I2S. also you can programm them as additional UART, PWM, I2C, SPI, ... i looked a bit into the documentation - it seems programming these lines is not as difficult and i am sure there will be soon alot of examples for even the most exoctic protocols. by feeding data directly via DMA into the output this should also give a good speed. so all in all this looks promissing. especially for the micropython: DMA and PIO can do all the heavy lifting and there even a slow python programm can then generate good performance. i am also wondering where the PI foundation wants to go with this. certainly it would not make sense to release just one processor. so it will be interesting to see where they take this...
@AndreasSpiess
@AndreasSpiess 3 года назад
Maybe you are right. I do not judge from the possibility, I usually judge from the problems.Time will tell which of my problems will be solved by the PIO. BTW: in Python most time critical protocols anyway are written in C to gain speed.

I think you're underestimating the usefulness of the PIO peripherals. They are designed to implement (along with DMA) high bandwidth and high-speed interfaces. These can include anything from I2S to DVI. There are interesting demo projects showing these off already, and I'm sure libraries making them useful to regular makers will be coming soon. There are a number of architecture details that aren't obvious from the high-level look at cores, clocks and peripherals that make this potentially interesting for more than it appears at first glance, and I'm excited to see what advanced makers do with it and later what libraries will enable for everyone else later on.

Honestly, the NXP RT1011 is rather more interesting, at LQFP-80, with a 500Mhz Cortex-M7 instead of the 600Mhz variant on the BGA RT1062 on the Teensy4.x. Problem with BGAs is needing to x-ray them to be sure none of the balls bridged. That costs a little bit extra per board. Or, well, since you want ethernet, the RT1020 in LQFP-100.

I agree with your verdict. IMO one strategic reason for creating the new chip design could be to use it as a co-processor on future raspberry pis thus offering better realtime capabilities and low power sleep states. Especially for that application it is probably preferable to use a well documented in-house design.

Thanks Andreas, very timely. I also liked the pin out on the board, either add headers for use in a breadboard or you can surface mount the board. Personally I could not see a strong use case for the board for stuff I do, vs the esp32, I do mostly standalone IOT so the wifi is a must have. However I am just started looking at some robotics and could see the pico working well as a interface from the main robot computer and managing hardware subsystems like the motors and encoders of a wheeled platform. Something like the Pico should be a good way of getting the PI community more involved with microcontrollers, I like that.

@@cr6925 It's not exactly an interpreted language. Some implementations are, others are not. From what I understand, Micropython embeds a compiler, which compiles the code into bytecode, and then every time the system is used, it's this bytecode that is used. It can still compile code on the fly (like for executing commands given in the REPL), but main usage is through pre-compilation. I believe you can even compile the code on your computer and just upload the byte-code if you prefer. If you're good at C/C++ though, you will definitely have it running faster, and take advantage of the strong typing.
