Pico Jumbo (Pico 2 Aboard)

by Pimoroni

A hilariously oversized but fully functional Raspberry Pi Pico 2 for demos, japes and shenanigans.

Psst, haven't you heard? Megacontrollers are the new microcontrollers. Large is the new little. Chonk is the new smol. Pico Jumbo is a giant (3.5x scale) Raspberry Pi Pico 2 that has the following advantages over the standard sized one:

  • The holes and castellations in the ridiculous oversized pads are great for connecting up crocodile/alligator clips - very useful for demo-ing in a classroom, workshop or on the Youtubes.
  • It has the ultimate best number one all time no notes Pico upgrade - a reset button.
  • Things that are the wrong scale are inherently very funny to us.

You can buy a Pico Jumbo on its own or in a starter kit along with a selection of pleasantly chunky components, so you can experience the pure childlike joy of blinking a big ol' LED or wiring up a big ol' button.

The Raspberry Pi logo is a registered trade mark of Raspberry Pi Ltd and is used by Pimoroni under licence from Raspberry Pi Ltd.

Notes

About RP2350

The RP2350 chip is the Double Quarter Pounder & Fries to the RP2040's Double Cheeseburger and can have one or more RISC-V burgers instead of either of the M33 ARMs, to stretch the metaphor.

In addition to the modern M33 ARM cores, there are sides of: more PIO capability, a variety of low power states for sipping electrons, a whole security system and some sprinklings of specialist digital video circuits to offload DVI/HDMI output.

You can expect a tasty boost in performance - our "real world" MicroPython tests are running up to 2x faster compared to RP2040, and floating point number crunching in C/C++ is up to 20x faster. The extra on-chip RAM will make a big difference when performing memory intensive operations (such as working with higher resolution displays) and even more can be added thanks to external PSRAM support.

RP2350 comes in two flavours - A (standard) and B (all the pins). The B chip has a stonking 48 usable GPIO pins, including 8 ADCs and 24 PWMs, and features on some of our new products.

Love this jumbo board! Great to teach about the Pico 2 board to students, so they can easily understand how to connect what to what on the board when doing projects. Like it so much, going to purchase another one soon!

What can I say, fun, overly large, easy to find on a busy desk and great for prototyping my ideas. Buy one, you know you want something this silly.

It brings a smile to your face when you open the packet containing the Pico Jumbo, because frankly it is just an absurd piece of hardware, but, it's an absolutely a fun thing to get. It's well made, it is educational if that's what you want it to be, but mostly it's silly, and who does not need silly from time to time, I can leave serious stuff to my other maker hardware and have a laugh. It arrived rapidly, well packaged, so good service as well.

It’s a big Pico! If you’re one of those who thinks size matters, this is the micro, or should I say, mega-controller for you. Perfect for someone with failing eyesight or someone who’s always losing their regular Pico. Pros: - it’s a Pico - it’s a big Pico Cons: - transporting it feels like moving furniture - difficult to explain to your significant other why you spent your money on this instead of groceries All in all, 10/10. Would buy again… if I had the room (the Pico jumbo has taken over the house)

Really awesome kit and a lot of fun! Some hiccups with shipping due to being a EU resident but customer service was really great and gave actual service. Couldn't be happier!

The Pico Jumbo is an excellent teaching aid to explain to kids and adults what physical computing is all about, and why it is much more fun than Microsoft Office.

Absolutely love my giant Pico. Great for demo’s in the classroom. I have used small nuts and bolts as pins so I can attach crocodile clips. Plan to use on CPD sessions I am running soon to share the love.

My son and I love Pico projects and as soon as we saw this Jumbo Pico we had to have it in our collection.
