Description
We adore the versatility and value of Raspberry Pi Pico but we also enjoy a souped-up RP2350 board with all the extras baked in. With Pimoroni Pico boards, we've tried to cram in as much extra functionality as we possibly can whilst keeping to the original Pico footprint to maintain compatibility with existing Pico addons.
Pimoroni Pico Plus 2 is powered and programmable via USB-C and comes with an upgraded 8MB RAM, 16MB of flash storage and easy-to-read pin labels. It's super easy to connect up to things without soldering, with a Qwiic/STEMMA QT connector (for adding I2C sensors and breakouts), a SP/CE connector (for hooking up SPI/serial devices) and a debug connector (for if you like to program using a SWD debugger). We've also added a reset button and a BOOT button - this can also be used as a user switch.

Notes
- The user LED is wired to GP25, just like on an ordinary Pico. You can blink it in exactly the same way!
- It is also useful for putting your Pico Plus 2 into bootloader mode, and you can also use the BOOT button as a user button. It's wired to GP45 and active low.
