The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is a small microcontroller board built on Raspberry Pi's RP2350 chip. It steps up from the original Pico with dual Arm Cortex-M33 cores at 150MHz, dual RISC-V Hazard3 cores, 520KB of RAM and 4MB of flash. It keeps the same pinout and micro-USB form factor, so existing Pico projects and add-ons carry over. It suits hobbyists, students and embedded developers who want more headroom than the Pico without moving to a bigger board.

Owners treat the Pico 2 as a straightforward, low-risk upgrade to the original Pico. They like the extra speed, memory and the RISC-V option, and note that existing code and wiring mostly carry over.
Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is the sequel to the original Raspberry Pi Pico. It is powered by the RP235x microcontroller platform, designed by Raspberry Pi.
The RP235x has dual Arm Cortex-M33 cores and dual RISC-V Hazard3 cores. It runs at a 150MHz system clock and has 520KB of RAM. Its security model is based on Arm TrustZone for Cortex-M, and its power efficiency is greatly improved over the original Pico.
The board pairs the microcontroller with 4MB of on-board QSPI flash memory for code and data storage.
