Raspberry Pi Pico W Wireless RP2040 MCU Board is a compact wireless RP2040 development board built around the official Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller and the Infineon CYW43439 wireless chip. It is a strong fit for wireless IoT nodes, MicroPython learning, embedded control, sensor networking, home automation, and low-power connected devices. Raspberry Pi Pico W adds 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2 capability to the Pico platform while keeping the small form factor, dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ architecture, and flexible GPIO and PIO features. This product page covers multiple official Waveshare package options, including Pico W Original, Pico WH Original, Pico W with pre-soldered header, Pico W Relay Kit, Pico W Basic Kit, and Pico W Evaluation Kit.

Choosing the right packageIf you want the bare board, choose Pico W Original or Pico WH Original. If you want an entry-level learning package, the Basic Kit is more suitable. If you need relay control, choose the Relay Kit. If you want a more feature-rich display and sensor setup, the Evaluation Kit is the better fit. Header noteThe Pico WH and the pre-soldered header version are easier to plug into boards and expanders, but they do not keep the castellated-hole form factor used on the original Pico W board. Resources Waveshare Wiki Pico W Relay Kit Wiki Pico W Basic Kit Wiki Pico W Evaluation Kit Wiki Official Pico W Datasheet Getting Started with Pico FAQ What is the difference between Pico W and Pico WH? Pico WH is the official version with a pre-soldered header. The original Pico W keeps the castellated-hole form factor. Which version should I choose? Choose Pico W Original for the bare wireless board, Pico WH Original for easier plug-in use, Relay Kit for wireless switching control, Basic Kit for beginner sensor experiments, and Evaluation Kit for display and IMU testing. Does it support wireless connectivity? Yes. Raspberry Pi Pico W supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi 4 and Bluetooth 5.2. What is it best used for? It is especially suitable for wireless IoT, MicroPython learning, home automation, relay control, sensor networking, and custom RP2040 development.
