Move from pi zero w to pi pico w?
June 3, 2024, 15:01
I plan to make an alarm clock with a few features on a pi pico w, the thing is I do not have one right now and it'll take a week or two for it to arrive, but i do have a pi zero w. if i were to run circuitpython on the pi zero w and experiment with it, will it be hard to port it over to a pico w afterwards?
Thank you in advance.
No it shouldn't be except hardware specific.
Thanks a lot, I guess the only thing i'll need to look out for is storage and i'll just need to rearrange the pins after
i plan to get a modified pico with 16MByte anyway
Ohh 16 MByte, nice! And please use the correct suffix as m = milli, and b = bit.
oh alright.
16 milli bits isn't much 😉
Hmm, from what I can see the W versions seem to be a bit pricey, what about an ESP32?
ESP32 can also run CircuitPython
I would suggest "Wemos S3 Mini"
im ordering from aliexpress and there are so many different ones i cant tell the difference in some of them
what does "WROOM" mean
Ah, wireless room
whats the difference except it being a bit smaller?
ESP32-WROOM Series
These are ESP32-D0WD-based modules with integrated flash. These modules are well suited for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth/Bluetooth LE-based connectivity applications and provide a solid dual-core performance.
It is just a regular ESP32 with voltage regulator and serial port
do u know the difference between s2 and s3?
i think i'll just get the s2 mini
im so confused the s2 says it has wifi but it doesnt say it has bluetooth anywhere which i need i thought it had bluetooth
seems like it doesnt support bluetooth, good thing i noticed i was gonna order 2
