    Arduino® Nano RP2040 Connect Back View of Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect Topology Ref. Description Ref. Description 3.3V jumper (connected) VUSB jumper (disconnected) 8 Processor The processor is based upon the new Raspberry Pi RP2040 silicon (U1). This microcontroller provides opportunities for low-power Internet of Things (IoT) development and embedded machine learning. Two symmetric Arm® Cortex®-M0+ clocked at 133MHz provide computation power for embedded machine learning and parallel processing with low power consumption. Six independant banks of 264 KB SRAM and 2MB are provided. Direct memory access provides fast interconnect between the processors and the memory that can be made inactive along with the core to enter a sleep state. Serial wire debug (SWD) is avaliable from boot via the pads under the board. The RP2040 runs at 3.3V and has an internal voltage regulator providing 1.1V. The RP2040 controls the peripherals and digital pins, as well as analog pins (A0-A3). The I2C connections on pins A4 (SDA) and A5 (SCL) are used for connecting to the onboards peripherals and are pulled up with a 4.7 kΩ resistor. SWD Clock line (SWCLK) and reset are also pulled up with a 4.7 kΩ resistor. An external MEMS oscillator (U7) running at 12MHz provides the clock pulse. Programmble IO helps to the implementation of arbitary communication protocol with minimal burden on the main processing cores. A USB 1.1 device interface is implemented on the RP2040 for uploading code. 11 / 20 Arduino® Nano RP2040 Connect / Rev. 01 - 03/05/2021...

  • Page 12: Wifi/Bluetooth Connectivity

    Arduino® Nano RP2040 Connect 9 WiFi/Bluetooth connectivity Wifi and Bluetooth connectivity is provided by the Nina W102 (U2) module. The RP2040 only has 4 analog pins, and the Nina is used to extend that to the full eight as is standard in the Arduino Nano form factor with another 4 12-bit analog inputs (A4-A7). Additionally, the common anode RGB LED is also controlled by the Nina W-102 module such that the LED is off when the digital state is HIGH and on when the digital state is LOW. The internal PCB antenna in the module eliminates the need for an external antenna. The Nina W102 module also includes a dual core Xtensa LX6 CPU that can also be programmed independantly of the RP2040 through the pads under the board using SWD. 10 6-axis IMU It is possible to obtain 3D gyroscope and 3D accelerometer data from the LSM6DSOX 6-axis IMU (U9). In addition to providing such data, it is also possible to do machine learning on the IMU for gesture detection. 11 External memory The RP2040 (U1) has access to an additional 16 MB of flash memory via a QSPI interface. The execute-in-place (XIP) feature of the RP2040 allows external flash memory to be addressed and accessed by the system as though it were internal memory, without first copying the code to internal memory. 12 Cryptography The ATECC608A Cryptographic IC (U4) provides secure boot capabilities alongside SHA and AES-128 encryption/decryption support for security in Smart Home and Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications. Additionally, a random number generator is also avaliable for use by the RP2040. 13 Microphone The MP34DT06J microphone is connected via a PDM interface to the RP2040. The digital MEMS microphone is omnidirectional and operate via a capacitive sensing element with a high (64 dB) signal to noise ratio. The sensing element, capable of detecting acoustic waves, is manufactured using a specialized silicon micromachining process dedicated to produce audio sensors. 12 / 20 Arduino® Nano RP2040 Connect / Rev. 01 - 03/05/2021...
