Understanding Chip System Block Diagrams: Start with the RP2040's "Miniature Factory"

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. For any chip, the block diagram serves as the core starting point for learning — it acts as the chip's "architecture specification", helping you build a…
