DescriptionDualM­CU brings the RP2040 micro­con­troller plus an ESP32 WROOM chip in a sim­ple one mod­ule, make the most of the dual core 32-bit Arm Cor­tex-M0 to make Inter­net of Things projects with Blue­tooth and Wi-Fi con­nec­tiv­i­ty.DualM­CU has been thought of as a mix between two 32-bit micro­proces­sors: a Rasp­ber­ry RP2040 cor­tex M0 run­ning at 133 Mhz and an ESP32 run­ning up to 240 MHz, in this way we imple­ment all the pow­er of both micro­con­trollers in a sin­gle devel­op­ment card. With a PCB size of 36mm x 84mm and using sur­face mount tech­nol­o­gy, four pro­gram­ma­ble cores with wire­less func­tions and fea­tures are found with very low pow­er con­sump­tion.Both micro­con­trollers can com­mu­ni­cate via ser­i­al pro­to­col by sim­ply acti­vat­ing a 2‑way DIP SWITCH, for exam­ple, we can pro­gram the ESP32 as a wire­less co-proces­sor to pro­vide the RP2040 micro­con­troller with WIFI or BLUETOOTH com­mu­ni­ca­tion. For pro­gram­ming, there is a mechan­i­cal selec­tor that allows us to select which MCU con­nects using a sin­gle USB type C con­nec­tor. Inter­con­nect an unlim­it­ed num­ber of I2C devices using its STEMMA, QWIIC and GROVE com­pat­i­ble JST-SH I2C con­nec­tors and dive into real-world projects with the onboard RGB 2020 and WS2812B LED.With over 46 gen­er­al pur­pose pins(GPIO), DualM­CU expos­es most out­put ports of both micro­con­trollers via pin head­ers and JST-SH con­nec­tors (STEMMA, QWIIC and GROVE I2Ccompatible). It has more com­mon periph­er­als such as: UART, I2C, SPI, PWM,ADC, Touch and state machines. The mul­ti­ple forms of con­nec­tion to sen­sors, actu­a­tors or even between both micro­con­trollers will only be lim­it­ed by your cre­ativ­i­ty. Features Of DualMCU Development Board:Com­bines the Rasp­ber­ry Pi RP2040 micro­con­troller and the Espres­sif ESP32 chip on a sin­gle board.Offers Blue­tooth and Wi-Fi con­nec­tiv­i­ty for Inter­net of Things projects.Has a com­pact size of 36mm x 84mm and uti­lizes sur­face mount tech­nol­o­gy.Fea­tures four pro­gram­ma­ble cores with wire­less func­tions and advanced capa­bil­i­ties.The RP2040 micro­con­troller has a clock speed of 133MHz, 264kB of SRAM, sup­port for up to 16MB of exter­nal flash mem­o­ry, 30 GPIO pins, 4 ADC chan­nels, and 16 PWM chan­nels, among oth­er char­ac­ter­is­tics.The ESP32 chip has a clock speed of up to 240MHz, inte­grat­ed Wi-Fi and Blue­tooth con­nec­tiv­i­ty, and sup­port for mul­ti­ple wire­less pro­to­cols, among oth­er char­ac­ter­is­tics.With its Dual CORE archi­tec­ture, this devel­op­ment board comes with robust capa­bil­i­ties for IoT projects in addi­tion to its advanced low-pow­er fea­tures and WiFi/Bluetooth con­nec­tiv­i­ty. But, the board has four pro­gram­ma­ble COREs–two Arm cor­tex-M0 and two LX7, com­ing with wire­less fea­tures and with Arduino IDE and MicroPy­thon sup­port for pro­gram­ming. This means that one can pro­gram each core using MicroPy­thon, Cir­cuit­Python, as well as with Arduino Pro­gram­ming Lan­guage.The DualM­CU can have a great range of appli­ca­tions in the Inter­net of Things(IoT),  pro­to­typ­ing, eval­u­a­tion and devel­op­ment, and robot­ics.  Also, the high pro­cess­ing capac­i­ty from RP2040, along with its flex­i­ble pro­gram­ming sup­port, enables the board to be used in exten­sive appli­ca­tions involv­ing motor con­trol and machine learn­ing. PinOutResources:GitHub Repos­i­to­ry
