It bundles in 264kB of SRAM, 30 multifunction GPIO pins (including a four channel 12-bit ADC), a heap of standard peripherals (I2C, SPI, UART, PWM, clocks, etc), and USB support. + +One very exciting feature of RP2040 is the programmable IOs which allow you to execute custom programs that can manipulate GPIO pins and transfer data between peripherals - they can offload tasks that require high data transfer rates or precise timing that traditionally would have required a lot of heavy lifting from the CPU. + +## Purchase +* [Pimoroni](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/plasma-2040) \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/assets/images/boards/large/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg b/assets/images/boards/large/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg new file mode 100755 index 0000000000..d0e04c7173 Binary files /dev/null and b/assets/images/boards/large/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg differ diff --git a/assets/images/boards/original/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg b/assets/images/boards/original/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg new file mode 100755 index 0000000000..6254f5bc20 Binary files /dev/null and b/assets/images/boards/original/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg differ diff --git a/assets/images/boards/small/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg b/assets/images/boards/small/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg new file mode 100755 index 0000000000..b003c4a785 Binary files /dev/null and b/assets/images/boards/small/pimoroni_plasma2040.jpg differ
