Program the Raspberry Pi Pico, the latest microcontroller board from
raspberrypi.org, with MicroPython. This book will take you on a tour of
the Raspberry Pi Pico, including how to get started using the
microcontroller, seeing which alternative microcontrollers are
available, and how to connect and run simple code examples.
You'll program example projects in MicroPython using Python on your PC
as a learning platform. Then build your hardware skillset working with
electronics and breadboard circuits. You'll implement example projects
with all steps explained, including hardware connections and executing
the project. Then apply them to real-world, approachable projects using
the accessible Raspberry Pi Pico!
The book shows how the cloud is used for IoT data and find out what
popular cloud systems currently exist for IoT. Finally, you'll use
ThingSpeak for hosting IoT data including connecting your Pico to the
Internet.
Beginning MicroPython with the Raspberry Pi Pico allows you to build
up your skills to more advanced IoT projects and Cloud systems!
