Raspberry Pico Adventures

 In an unexpected move, the Raspberry Foundation  announced the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe , an interesting accessory for the Pico boards (and other boards with ARM microcontrollers). The Debug Probe board A few days later, they announced the Raspbery Pi Pico Windows Installer for easier installation of the SDK and the complete toolchain needed for developing C/C++ for the Picos under Windows.

We will now take a look at TCP communication. There are client and server examples at pico-examples, let's see if we can understand what is done.

When the Raspberry Pi Pico W was launched (seven months ago), a somewhat surprise was that the hardware supported Bluetooth but the software did not. All that was said then was that it maybe added in the future. At the beginning of this year, BT support was included in the plans for version 1.5 of the C/C++ SDK , expected for the end of January . It took a few days more, but the new SDK version was released and yes, it includes support for Bluetooth in the Pico W, but it is labeled as BETA . It also includes other important fixes and enhancements.
