## Description

A reference design for the RP2040 Stamp, also a full-fledged RP2040 Uno form-factor development board!

The Carrier is a reference design for the [RP2040 Stamp](https://core-electronics.com.au/rp2040-stamp-1.html). It comes with a combo SMD/TH Stamp footprint, you can solder the Stamp directly to the Carrier or use 2mm pin headers + sockets to be able to plug it in and out.

The Carrier extends the functionality of the Stamp by adding a BOOTSEL button, LiPo and Qwiic connectors, USR and PWR LEDs, an SWD header, and a USB Type-C connector.

The board can be powered from the LiPo, over USB, or with a DC jack.

By using the RP2040 Stamp Carrier, you get everything that comes with [the Stamp itself:](https://core-electronics.com.au/rp2040-stamp-1.html)

- **8MB of FLASH**
- **500mA 3.3V LDO**
- **A Neopixel**
- LiPo supply and charging circuit (with charging LED)
- A reset button
- 12MHz crystal

On top of that you get:

- A bootsel button
- 3.7/4.2V LiPo connector
- Qwiic connector
- USR LED
- Power (3.3V) LED
- SWD header
- USB Type-C connector
- DC Jack

The DC Jack input is center-positive and supports voltages in the range of 7-12V. If you have the LiPo and either DC or USB connected, the battery will begin charging.

The board follows the Uno shield pinout, making it compatible with a large ecosystem of shields, as long as they work on 3.3V IOs. **The pins are not 5V-tolerant**.

The SWD header follows the Cortex 10-pin standard.

The CircuitPython firmware for the RP2040 Stamp comes with a built-in board file for the Carrier, you can access it using `import stamp_carrier_board as board`. After that, you can access all the Carrier pins and interfaces like you would with any other CPY board.
