## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=PIM558:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/PIM558:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

A postage stamp sized RP2040 development board with a USB-C connection and 8MB of flash, perfect for portable projects, wearables, and embedding into devices.

While we love the Raspberry Pi Pico we also wanted something smaller and with a bunch more flash on board. Introducing the Tiny 2040 - a teeny tiny powerhouse with the chops to realise truly ambitious projects.

Powered and programmable via USB-C, Tiny 2040 comes with 8MB of QSPI (XiP) flash on board so it can handle projects small and large with ease. The board is designed with castellated pads to allow it to be directly soldered onto a PCB or alternatively you can use pin headers to hook it up on a breadboard or directly with wires. Pimoroni has even managed to fit in a programmable RGB LED, a reset button and some clever circuitry that lets you use the boot button as a user controllable switch.

It's compatible with firmware built for the [Raspberry Pi Pico](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-pico.html) but offers a reduced number of pins due to its size. You can even run MicroPython on it!

**Features**

- Powered by RP2040
- ARM Cortex M0+ running at up to 133Mhz
- 264kB of SRAM
- USB-C connector for power, programming, and data transfer
- 8MB of QSPI flash supporting XiP
- User controllable RGB LED
- Twelve IO pins (including four 12-bit ADC channels)
- Switch for basic input (doubles up as DFU select on boot)
- On-board 3V3 regulator
- Dimensions: approx 22.9 x 18.2 x 6mm (L x W x H)
