W55RP20-EVB-Pico

Overview

W55RP20-EVB-Pico is a microcontroller evaluation board based on the W55RP20, a SiP device that combines a Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller and a fully hardwired TCP/IP controller W5500. It basically works the same as a Raspberry Pi Pico board, with additional Ethernet provided by the integrated W5500. The USB bootloader allows the ability to flash without any adapter, in a drag-and-drop manner. It is also possible to flash and debug the boards with their SWD interface, using an external adapter.

Hardware

  • Dual core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor running up to 133MHz

  • 264KB on-chip SRAM

  • 2MB on-board flash

  • 22 GPIO pins

  • 4 Analog inputs

  • 2 UART peripherals

  • 2 SPI controllers

  • 2 I2C controllers

  • 8 Programmable I/O (PIO) for custom peripherals

  • On-board LED

  • 1 Watchdog timer peripheral

  • Wiznet W5500 Ethernet MAC/PHY

Pin Mapping

The peripherals of the RP2040 SoC can be routed to various pins on the board. The configuration of these routes can be modified through DTS. Please refer to the datasheet to see the possible routings for each peripheral.

External pin mapping on the W55RP20_EVB_PICO is identical to the Raspberry Pi Pico. However, GPIO17, GPIO20, GPIO21, GPIO22, GPIO23, GPIO24, and GPIO25 are not available on the edge connector due to internal connections on the board. GPIO19 is routed to the on-board LED. The W5500 interface signals are internally connected and are not exposed on the edge connector.

Refer to W55RP20 Evaluation Board Documentation [1] for a board schematic and other certifications.

Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping:

  • UART0_TX : P0

  • UART0_RX : P1

  • I2C0_SDA : P4

  • I2C0_SCL : P5

  • I2C1_SDA : P14

  • I2C1_SCL : P15

  • W5500 interface : Internal (not exposed)

  • ADC_CH0 : P26

  • ADC_CH1 : P27

  • ADC_CH2 : P28

  • ADC_CH3 : P29

Programming and Debugging

The w55rp20_evb_pico board supports the runners and associated west commands listed below.

The overall explanation regarding flashing and debugging is the same as or Raspberry Pi Pico. See Programming and Debugging in Raspberry Pi Pico documentation. N.b. OpenOCD support requires using Raspberry Pi’s forked version of OpenOCD.

Below is an example of building and flashing the Blinky application.

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b w55rp20_evb_pico samples/basic/blinky
west flash --openocd /usr/local/bin/openocd
