The board has a STEMMA QT connector that is also connected to pins GPI12 (I2C1 SDA) and GPI13 (I2C1 SDA).
Power Supply
The Raspberry Pi Pico can be powered via the USB connector, or by supplying +5V to pin 23.
The Raspberry Pi Pico chip run on 3.3 volts. This is supplied by an onboard voltage regulator.

======
This directory contains the port of NuttX to the Adafruit KB2040.
See https://www.adafruit.com/product/5302 for information about Adafruit KB2040.
NuttX supports the following RP2040 capabilities:
- UART (console port)
- GPIO 0 (UART0 TX) and GPIO 1 (UART0 RX) are used for the console.
- I2C
- SPI (master only)
- DMAC
- PWM
- ADC
- Watchdog
- USB device
- MSC, CDC/ACM serial and these composite device are supported.
- CDC/ACM serial device can be used for the console.
- PIO (RP2040 Programmable I/O)
- Flash ROM Boot
- SRAM Boot
- If Pico SDK is available, nuttx.uf2 file which can be used in
BOOTSEL mode will be created.
- Persistent flash filesystem in unused flash ROM
NuttX also provide support for these external devices:
- BMP180 sensor at I2C0 (don't forget to define I2C0 GPIOs at "I2C0 GPIO pin assign" in Board Selection menu)
- INA219 sensor / module (don't forget to define I2C0 GPIOs at "I2C0 GPIO pin assign" in Board Selection menu)
- Pico Display Pack (ST7789 LCD)
- RGB leds and buttons are not supported yet.
- Pico Audio Pack (PCM5100A I2S DAC)
- I2S interface is realized by PIO.
- WS2812 smart pixel support
There is currently no direct user mode access to these RP2040 hardware features:
- SPI Slave Mode
- SSI
- RTC
- Timers
Installation
============
1. Download Raspberry Pi Pico SDK
$ git clone -b 1.1.2 https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-sdk.git
2. Set PICO_SDK_PATH environment variable
$ export PICO_SDK_PATH=<absolute_path_to_pico-sdk_directory>
3. Configure and build NuttX
$ git clone https://github.com/apache/nuttx.git nuttx
$ git clone https://github.com/apache/nuttx-apps.git apps
$ cd nuttx
$ make distclean
$ ./tools/configure.sh raspberrypi-pico:nsh
$ make V=1
4. Connect Adafruit KB2040 board to USB port while pressing BOOTSEL.
The board will be detected as USB Mass Storage Device.
Then copy "nuttx.uf2" into the device.
(Same manner as the standard Pico SDK applications installation.)
5. To access the console, GPIO 0 and 1 pins must be connected to the
device such as USB-serial converter.
`usbnsh` configuration provides the console access by USB CDC/ACM serial
devcice. The console is available by using a terminal software on the USB
host.

- displaypack
Pico Display Pack support
See the following page for connection:
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/pico-display-pack
- audiopack
Pico Audio Pack support
See the following page for connection:
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/pico-audio-pack
SD card interface is also enabled.
- usbnsh
USB CDC/ACM serial console with NuttShell
- usbmsc
USB MSC and CDC/ACM support
`msconn` and `sercon` commands enable the MSC and CDC/ACM devices.
The MSC support provides the interface to the SD card with SPI,
so the SD card slot connection like spisd configuration is required.
- composite
USB composite device (MSC + CDC/ACM) support
`conn` command enables the composite device.
