RP2040 vs RP2350
The two microcontrollers Raspberry Pi designs itself — the RP2040 in the Pico and Pico W, the RP2350 in the Pico 2 and Pico 2 W. Code for one mostly runs on the other; the RP2350 is the one to start with now.
| Spec | RP2040 | RP2350 |
|---|---|---|
| Boards | Pico, Pico W | Pico 2, Pico 2 W |
| Released | January 2021 | August 2024 |
| Cores | 2× Arm Cortex-M0+ | 2× Arm Cortex-M33 or 2× Hazard3 RISC-V, chosen at boot |
| Clock | 133 MHz (200 MHz supported from SDK 2.1.1) | 150 MHz |
| Floating point | Software (fast ROM routines) | Hardware FPU and DSP on the M33 |
| SRAM | 264 KB | 520 KB |
| Flash on the Pico board | 2 MB | 4 MB |
| GPIO | 30 | 30 (RP2350A) or 48 (RP2350B) |
| ADC | 4 channels, 12-bit | 4 (A) or 8 (B) channels, 12-bit |
| PIO | 2 blocks, 8 state machines | 3 blocks, 12 state machines |
| PWM channels | 16 | 24 |
| Security | None | Secure boot, Arm TrustZone, 8 KB OTP for keys, glitch detectors |
| Video | No video output (PicoDVI bit-bangs DVI through PIO, overclocked) | HSTX high-speed output — DVI from 3 pairs of pins |
| Low power | Dormant and sleep modes | Adds a low-power always-on timer and lower sleep current |
| Chip price | About $0.70 – $1 | $0.80 – $1.20 |
Reading the table
Price is the US list price in USD of the cheapest version in October 2026, with the launch price under it. Memory costs raised prices five times from October 2025: the 16 GB Pi 5 went from $120 to $305, the Pi 500+ from $200 to $410. The 1 GB Pi 4 and Pi 5, the Zero and Pico families and the Pi 3 did not change.
Memory and storage are ranges when a board was sold in several configurations.
Older marks a board replaced by a newer one at the same price and size. Most are still made for existing products — Raspberry Pi keeps boards in production for years.
Not listed: the Compute Module 1, 3, 3+ and 4S, and the Compute Module 0 (2025), which is sold officially only in China.
All prices are in US dollars (USD): Raspberry Pi's US list prices as of October 2026, before tax and shipping. Prices in other countries and at resellers differ.
Instructions
Pick a Raspberry Pi, a Pico or an RP chip from what your project has to do, or look up any model's specs.
- On Help me choose, start from a project such as Wireless keyboard → text on a small LCD, or tick what the board has to do: run Linux, take USB devices, drive a small LCD, run on a battery, and so on.
- Boards that do all of it out of the box come first; boards that need an adapter or an extra board follow, each with what to add. A project also shows How to build it.
- Click a board's name to open its row on All models, where you can search every spec, filter by family and sort by year or price.
- Names & comparisons explains what A, B, +, W, H, Zero and the numbers mean, and puts look-alike boards side by side: Zero vs Zero W vs Zero 2 W, Model A vs B vs B+, Pi 4 vs Pi 5, and the four Picos.
Tips
- Pi or Pico? A Pi is a small Linux computer; a Pico is a microcontroller that runs one program, starts instantly and sips power. Plenty of projects use both.
- USB devices means the board is a USB host. Full-size Pis have USB-A ports; the Zero and the Pico need a micro-USB OTG adapter, and the Pico also needs host code.
- Prices are the US list price of each board's cheapest version in October 2026; All models also shows the launch price. Memory costs have pushed the 2 GB-and-up boards far above their launch prices since late 2025, so check a reseller before you buy.
- Older boards (Pi 1, 2 and 3 B) are hidden from the chooser unless you include them, and bare chips only appear when you include them too.
- Your choices, search, filter and sort are kept in local storage on this device only — nothing about this page is sent anywhere.
- Hit Example and click Help me choose (or the keyboard project card) for the keyboard-to-LCD project, or All models or the search box for a sample search.
