A simple IDE to program MicroPython on the board is the Arduino Lab for MicroPython IDE. Alternatives are, Jupyter Notebook or Thonny IDE.

Upgrade the Arduino Firmware[edit]

  • Reinstall the MicroPython Firmware (version 1.22.2 tested)
  • Install the Arduino IDE
  • Start Arduino IDE and select the Arduino RP2040 board
  • Go to Tools -> Firmware Update -> Check updates and select version 1.5.0 and press Install

Install the MicroPython Firmware[edit]

Note: Before installing MicroPython ensure you have the latest Arduino Firmware, see Upgrade the Arduino Firmware.

  • Plug the board into the USB port on your computer, it appears as a drive in your filesystem

  • Remove the wire between the GND and REC pin (before you copy the file onto the device)
  • Copy the firmware you downloaded on the drive that showed up in your file system

  • Once it is completely copied to the device, unplug the board and plug in again

How to control the Builtin LED MicroPython[edit]

this is GPIO6 (D13 in Arduino) 

 1 from machine import Pin
 2 from time import sleep 
 3 
 4 # using the internal LED on the Pico - pin 25 
 5 myLED = Pin(6, Pin.OUT)
 6 
 7 while True:
 8       # this switches the LED on for 1 second
 9       myLED.on()
10       sleep(0.1)
11       # this switches the LED off for 500 ms
12       myLED.off()
13       sleep(0.5)

Example: Read Accelerometer and Gyro[edit]

 1 import time
 2 from lsm6dsox import LSM6DSOX
 3 
 4 from machine import Pin, I2C
 5 lsm = LSM6DSOX(I2C(0, scl=Pin(13), sda=Pin(12)))
 6 
 7 while (True):
 8     accel_data = lsm.accel()
 9     print('Accelerometer: x:{:>8.3f} y:{:>8.3f} z:{:>8.3f}'.format(*accel_data))
10     gyro_data = lsm.gyro()
11     print('Gyroscope:     x:{:>8.3f} y:{:>8.3f} z:{:>8.3f}'.format(*gyro_data))
12     print("")
13     time.sleep_ms(100)


Example of a WIFI-Access Point and Webserver to control the LED[edit]
