Embedded 101: Decode RP2040 & RP2350 Naming Rules

Project description

【Preliminary Note】The original hardware example in this article was written based on the RP2040. The actual hardware used in this hands-on demonstration features the W55RP20 as the main controller chip. The circuit logic and UF2 flashing operation principles are universally applicable, with only the main controller model differing. The original chip model mentioned in the circuit descriptions below is provided for reference purposes only. There is a set of extremely simple coding rules hidden in the RP series microcontroller models of Raspberry Pi. As long as you remember these 5 positions…
