Welcome to Lesson 3 of the Raspberry Pi Pico with MicroPython - GPIO Mastery course. In this lesson, we will discuss the voltage levels of Raspberry Pi Pico pins and how to work with them safely.
Raspberry Pi Pico with MicroPython - GPIO Mastery
In this lesson, you will learn:
The Raspberry Pi Pico operates at 3.3V. All of its GPIO pins can be used as digital inputs or outputs with a voltage range of 0 to 3.3V. However, it is important to note that some sensors and devices may require different voltage levels.
It is important to be aware of the voltage levels of the components you are working with and to ensure that you are using them safely. Here are some tips for working with voltage levels safely:
If you need to interface with components that require a different voltage level than the Raspberry Pi Pico, you will need to use a voltage level shifter or converter. These devices can be used to convert the voltage level of a signal from one level to another.
For example, if you are interfacing with a device that operates at 5V, you can use a voltage level shifter to convert the signal to 3.3V so that it can be safely connected to the Raspberry Pi Pico.
After you have completed this lesson, you will understand the voltage levels of Raspberry Pi Pico pins and how to work with them safely. This knowledge will help you avoid potential damage to your board or components when connecting them in your projects.
