Waveshare RP2350-Zero Mini Development Board – Dual-Core Dual-Architecture RP2350 MCU Board (Pakistan)
The Waveshare RP2350-Zero is a compact, Pico-style microcontroller development board built around the official Raspberry Pi RP2350 chip. Featuring a unique dual-core, dual-architecture design — dual-core Arm Cortex-M33 plus dual-core Hazard3 RISC-V — this tiny board delivers desktop-class flexibility in a footprint small enough for wearables, embedded electronics, and space-constrained IoT projects. With a USB Type-C connector, 4MB onboard flash, 520KB SRAM, and castellated edge pads for direct SMD soldering, it's built for makers, students, and professional embedded developers across Pakistan who need a reliable, fast, and affordable RP2350 board.
Key Features
- Powerful Dual-Architecture Processor: Dual-core Arm Cortex-M33 + dual-core Hazard3 RISC-V, clockable up to 150MHz — switch architectures in firmware for maximum project flexibility.
- Ultra-Compact "Zero" Form Factor: Ideal for wearables, drones, robotics, and any project where board size matters.
- USB Type-C Connectivity: Modern connector for power, programming, and USB 1.1 host/device data — supports drag-and-drop firmware flashing via USB mass storage (DFU/bootloader mode), no special programmer required.
- Rich I/O for Any Project: 29 multi-function GPIO pins, 2× SPI, 2× UART, 2× I2C, 4× 12-bit ADC, and 16 controllable PWM channels.
- 12× Programmable I/O (PIO) State Machines: Build custom peripherals and protocols entirely in hardware-accelerated software.
- Developer Friendly: Fully compatible with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem — program in C/C++ or MicroPython with full community and SDK support.
- Onboard Extras: WS2812 RGB LED, onboard temperature sensor, accelerated floating-point library, low-power sleep/dormant modes, BOOT and RUN buttons, and debug pins for advanced development.
