A new chip means a new Feather, and the Raspberry Pi RP2040 is no exception. When we saw this chip we thought "this chip is going to be awesome when we give it the Feather Treatment" and so we did! This Feather features the **RP2040**, and all niceties you know and love about Feather.

If you'd like quickly get started with CAN bus interfacing, with no soldering required, our **Adafruit RP2040 CAN Bus Feather** comes ready-to-rock with a microcontroller, CAN chipset and terminal blocks for instant gratification. [The controller used is the MCP26525 (aka a MCP2515 with built-in transciever), an extremely popular and well-supported chipset](https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/MCP2515) that has drivers in Arduino and [CircuitPython](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_MCP2515) and only requires an SPI port and two pins for chip-select and IRQ. Use it to send and receive messages in either standard or extended format at up to 1 Mbps.

Feather is the development board specification from Adafruit, and like its namesake, it is thin, light, and lets you fly! We designed Feather to be a new standard for portable microcontroller cores. [We have other boards in the Feather family, check'em out here](https://www.adafruit.com/feather).

This is the Adafruit Feather RP2040 RFM9x. We call these RadioFruits, our take on a microcontroller with packet radio transceiver with built-in USB and battery charging. It's an Adafruit Feather RP2040 with a radio module cooked in! Great for making wireless networks that are more flexible than Bluetooth LE and without the high power requirements of WiFi.

Easy e-paper and RP2040 finally come to your Feather with this Adafruit RP2040 Feather Think Ink that's designed to make it a breeze to add almost any common e-Ink/e-Paper display. Chances are you've seen one of those new-fangled 'e-readers' like the Kindle or Nook. They have gigantic electronic paper 'static' displays - that means the image stays on the display even when power is completely disconnected. The image is also high contrast and very daylight readable. It really does look just like printed paper!

We've liked these displays for a long time, and we've got Arduino/CircuitPython drivers for tons of the various display chipsets, so wouldn't an e-paper RP2040 Feather make a ton of sense? Luckily for us, just about every small-medium size EInk display made these days has a standard 24-pin connection. This Feather will add all the power supply support circuitry and level shifting so you can attach your favorite display - we've tested it with up to 5.6" sized 7-color ACeP displays.

What's smaller than a Feather but larger than a Trinket? It's an Adafruit ItsyBitsy RP2040 featuring the Raspberry Pi RP2040! Small, powerful, with a ultra fast duel Cortex M0+ processor running at 125 MHz - this microcontroller board is perfect when you want something very compact, with lots of horsepower and a bunch of pins. This Itsy has sports car speed, but SUV roominess with 4 MB of FLASH and 264 KB of SRAM.

A wild Kee Boar appears! It’s a shiny **KB2040**! An Arduino Pro Micro-shaped board for Keebs with RP2040. (#keeblife 4 evah) A lot of folks like using Adafruit parts for their Keeb builds – but with the ItsyBitsy not being pin-compatible with the Pro Micro pinout, it really wasn't very easy without some sort of adapter plate.
1921

2022
Now we’re seeing lots of people use CircuitPython for keebs, which is awesome! So why not try our hands at spinning up a pro-micro-compatible RP2040 board? The RP2040 is plenty powerful, low-cost, and makes for an excellent keeb driver chip.

Strap yourself in, we're launching in T-minus 10 seconds...Destination? A new Class M planet called MACROPAD! M here, stands for Microcontroller because this 3x4 keyboard controller features the newest technology from the Raspberry Pi sector: say hello to the RP2040. It's speedy little microcontroller with lots of GPIO pins and a 64 times more RAM than the Apollo Guidance Computer. We added 8 MB of flash memory for plenty of storage.

Get ready to upgrade your desk's mission control station with a CircuitPython or Arduino powered Macropad - complete with 12 buttons, OLED display, speaker and rotary encoder. Customize it for your spacecraft to help guide you through the great reaches of the unknown. (Or just have it type out your favorite emojis.)

It's half USB Key, half Adafruit QT Py, and a lotta RP2040*...*it's **Trinkey QT2040**, the circuit board with an RP2040 heart and Stemma QT legs. Folks are loving the [QT Py 2040](https://www.adafruit.com/product/4900) we made, but maybe you want something plug-and-play. So we thought, hey what if we made something like that plugs right into your computer's USB port? And this is what we came up with!
1921

2022
The PCB is designed to slip into any USB A port on a computer or laptop. There's an RP2040 microcontroller on board with just enough circuitry to keep it happy. There's an RGB NeoPixel, a reset and bootloader or user button and a STEMMA QT Port on the end. That's it!
