The Pico W5 packs a serious punch for developers who want more out of their Raspberry Pi Pico-based projects. It preserves the best parts of the original Pico W design while adding stronger wireless capabilities, a USB Type-C interface, and support for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless connectivity. The increased Flash capacity and improved Bluetooth functionality give you more headroom for code and data, making the Pico W5 ideal for IoT experiments, edge computing, STEM education, and all sorts of creative tinkering.

Its form factor, pin definition, and dimensions are the same as the Raspberry Pi Pico, and its stamp-hole design ensures compatibility with most Pico modules. With support for C/C++ and MicroPython, along with open source tutorials and a comprehensive SDK, it's ready to slot into all kinds of applications, whether you're turning out quick prototypes or working on serious embedded systems.

Features

Larger onboard Flash compared to Pico W and a USB Type-C interface
Support for Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n (2.4GHz or 5GHz), plus low-power Bluetooth and Bluetooth 5.0
Same appearance, pin definitions, and dimensions as Raspberry Pi Pico for broad compatibility
Stamp-hole design for easy soldering and integration onto custom boards
C/C++ and MicroPython development
Comprehensive SDK and open source tutorials

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

Arm Cortex-M33: A 32-bit, low-power Arm microcontroller core designed for real-time, timing-sensitive control tasks such as reading sensors or driving motors. It can act as a chip's main controller, or in some systems-on-chip run alongside larger application cores that handle an operating system like Linux.
edge computing: Edge computing means processing data close to where it is collected, such as on the device itself, rather than sending everything to the cloud. This can reduce delays, internet dependence, and privacy concerns in sensor, camera, and robotics projects.
IoT: Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
LED: A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
MicroPython: A version of the Python programming language made to run on microcontrollers. It matters because it lets beginners write readable code to control LEDs, sensors, motors and displays without needing to start with lower-level languages.
RISC-V: RISC-V is an open, royalty-free processor instruction-set architecture used in chips ranging from tiny microcontrollers to Linux-capable application processors. The choice of RISC-V determines which compilers, software tools, and performance or low-power features are available, separate from the more common Arm or x86 architectures.
RP2350: A microcontroller chip from Raspberry Pi used as the main processor on some development boards. Knowing the board is built around an RP2350 helps you check software support, pin capabilities and whether it suits MicroPython projects.
SRAM: Fast temporary memory used by a processor while a program is running. More SRAM helps with projects that handle larger data buffers, networking, displays, or more complex code.
Type-C: USB Type-C (USB-C) is a small, reversible USB connector used for charging, power, and data transfer on many modern devices. A Type-C port or plug indicates the cable and charger connection needed to power, charge, or communicate with a device.
USB Type-C: USB Type-C is a small, reversible USB connector used for power, data and sometimes video on many modern devices. The connector itself does not guarantee a particular speed or voltage, so check the supported USB version, data rate and whether it carries more than 5V via USB Power Delivery.
