# [WIZnet-PICO-C example] W55RP20-EVB-PICO Firmware Not Booting After Building

## Question

Asked by Aimee0 on 2025-06-05 in General.

### **🔧 Issue: W55RP20-EVB-PICO Firmware Not Booting After Building**

<https://github.com/aimee0000/TSG_maker/blob/main/WIZnet_PICO_C_Troubleshooting.md#-issue-w55rp20-evb-pico-firmware-not-booting-after-building>

**Problem Phenomenon (The issue):**

- After building and flashing the firmware for the W55RP20-EVB-PICO board using the specified repository, the board fails to boot up. The firmware file (`firmware.uf2`) is generated successfully, but the board does not operate as expected once flashed.

**Cause (The cause of the issue):**

- The issue arises because the repository in question uses Pico-SDK version 1.5.0, which does not support the necessary clock initialization changes that are required for the board to function correctly. There is a known patch (`0001_pico_sdk_clocks.patch`) that addresses similar issues, but it is designed to work with Pico-SDK 2.0.0. Consequently, the lack of support for the required changes in version 1.5.0 leads to the board's failure to boot.

**Solution (Concrete code changes, configuration changes, step-by-step actions, etc., that actually solved the problem):**

- Two potential solutions are suggested:
  1. Update the repository to use Pico-SDK 2.0.0, which is compatible with the existing patch and should resolve the clock initialization issue.
  2. Develop and provide a new patch that works with Pico-SDK 1.5.0 to address the clock initialization issue.

- Additionally, there is an ongoing pull request for MicroPython W55RP20-EVB-PICO that supports Pico-SDK 2.0.0, which can be referred to for guidance. However, caution is advised as this PR is still in progress and may be subject to further changes.
