Why a Raspberry Pi Pico?
Designing your own microcontroller instead of buying an existing one brings a number of advantages. According to Raspberry Pi itself, not one of the existing products available for this comes close to their price/performance ratio.
This Raspberry Pi Pico has also given Raspberry Pi the ability to add some innovative and powerful features of their own. These features are not available anywhere else.
A third reason is that the Raspberry Pi Pico has given Raspberry Pi the ability to create powerful software around the product. Surrounding this software stack is an extensive documentation set. The software and documentation meet the high standard of Raspberry Pi's core products (such as the Raspberry Pi 400, Pi 4 Model B and Pi 3 Model A+).
Who is this microcontroller for?
The Raspberry Pi Pico is suitable for both advanced and novice users. From controlling a display to controlling many different devices that you use every day. Automating everyday operations is made possible by this technology.
Beginner users
The Raspberry Pi Pico is programmable in the C and MicroPython languages and is customizable for a wide range of devices. In addition, the Pico is as easy to use as dragging and dropping files. This makes this microcontroller ideally suited for the novice user.
Advanced users
For advanced users, it is possible to take advantage of the Pico's extensive peripherals. The peripherals include the SPI, I²C, and eight programmable I/O (PIO)-state machines.
What makes the Raspberry Pi Pico unique?
What's unique about the Pico is that it was developed by Raspberry Pi itself. The RP2040 features a dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor with 264 KB of internal RAM and support for up to 16 MB of off-chip Flash.
The Raspberry Pi Pico is unique for several reasons:

Power over Ethernet (PoE) enabled
PoE operation requires the purchase of the new PoE HAT which will be available at launch.
Without being tethered to an electrical outlet, the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ can be located wherever it is needed most, and repositioned easily if required up to a range of 100 m.
Having power available over a network means that installation and distribution of network of Raspberry Pi’s becomes simpler and more effective.

Raspberry Pi Zero 2 WH is the successor to the breakthrough Raspberry Pi Zero W(H). The board incorporates a quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A53 CPU, clocked at 1 GHz. At its heart is a Raspberry Pi RP3A0 system-in-package (SiP), integrating a Broadcom BCM2710A1 die with 512 MB of LPDDR2 SDRAM. The upgraded processor provides Raspberry Pi Zero 2 WH with 40% more single-threaded performance, and five times more multi-threaded performance, than the original single-core Raspberry Pi Zero.

Raspberry Pi Zero 2 WH is footprint-compatible with earlier Zero models.
Like the Raspberry Pi 3 B+, the Raspberry Pi 3 A+ boasts a 64-bit quad-core processor running at 1.4 GHz, dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless LAN, and Bluetooth 4.2/BLE. The dual-band wireless LAN comes with modular compliance certification, allowing the board to be designed into end products with significantly reduced wireless LAN compliance testing, improving both cost and time to market. The Raspberry Pi 3 A+ has the same mechanical footprint as the Raspberry Pi 1 A+.

Elektor Raspberry Pi Buffer Board
When you experiment with the Raspberry Pi on a regular basis and you connect a variety of external hardware to the GPIO port via the header you may well have caused some damage in the past. The Raspberry Pi Buffer Board is there to prevent this! The board is compatible with Raspberry Pi Zero, 3, 4, 5 and 400.
All 26 GPIOs are buffered with bi-directional voltage translators to protect the Raspberry Pi when experimenting with new circuits. The PCB is intended to be inserted in the back of Raspberry Pi< 400. The connector to connect to the Raspberry Pi is a right angled 40-way receptacle (2x20). The PCB is only a fraction wider. A 40-way flat cable with appropriate 2x20 headers can be connected to the buffer output header to experiment for instance with a circuit on a breadboard or PCB.
The circuit uses four TXS0108E ICs by Texas Instruments. The PCB can also be put upright on a Raspberry Pi 3 or newer.
