MicroPython is a very robust environment natively compiling and running python script. MicroPython fits a compiler, a python virtual machine and a file system to store the script. Thanks to MicroPython, everything learned with Python language or MicroPython boards can be applied to the Pico.

The kit is designed to ease the prototyping phase, it can be open flat on the desk to ease access to every logic signals and components/boards added to the initial setup.

The "Cansat Pico Board" feature the Raspberry-Pi Pico and already embeeds useful and smart features to ease the prototyping and testing phase for your Cansat project.
 +
 +
When the kit was designed, we did forseen the fact that the project could either be:
 +
* placed between the boards (inside).
 +
* placed ouside of the boards and use a shorter ribbon (boards are enclosed right in the middle of the project).
 +
 +
We did also features a Qwiic/StemmaQt connector available underside. This very compact connector do features power and I2C bus. It can be used to quickly and safely connects toons of I2C capable sensors boards.
 +
* [https://www.adafruit.com/category/1005 StemmaQT sensors] are available at [https://www.adafruit.com Adafruit Industries USA] and its distributor network.

Just flip over the "Cansat Pico Board" to discover additional features available underside the Pico.
 +
 +
As we can propotype under the board, it is also very important to have the board fully labelled this side.
 +

 +
 +
As the Raspberry-Pi Pico doesn't features Lipo battery circuitery, we do added a special connector to plug an [https://www.adafruit.com/product/1944 Adafruit PowerBoost 500 charger] on the board.
 +
 +
Just connect the Pico to you computer (or power it with a wall adapter) and the Lipo will auto-magically starts to charge-up.
 +
 +
Unplug your pico from computer and the PowerBoost charger will take over. The Lipo will discharge to power your project.
 +
 +
Thanks to the PowerBoost, your cansat projet do also have a 5V power rail (500 mA max).
 +
 +
Needs to spare energy? no problem, the "Power Off" pin is available near of the board boundary. Once the PWR_OFF tied to the ground, the PowerBoost is disabled (as Pico and the project).
