* '''VBUS''' - Does have 5V when the Pico micro USB is plugged onto a computer (or PSU). Python code also detect VBUS by querying the GP24 pin (goes HIGH when 5V is present).
−
* '''VSYS''' - (GP26 = VSYS/3)
+
* '''VSYS''' - allows to power-up the Pico from an external power source from 1.8 to 5.5V (lipo battery). The voltage on this pin can be monitored with analog pin GP26 (=VSYS/3). It is quite useful to warn the user when the battery must be refill. GP26 is not exposed on the GPIO connector.
−
* '''3V3''' -
+
* '''3V3''' - Output of the 3.3V onboard regulator. That pin can deliver up to 300mA to your project. This step-up/step-down 3.3V regulator is powered from VSYS.
−
* '''3V3_EN''' -
+
* '''3V3_EN''' - Tied this pin to the ground to disable the 3.3V regulator and shutdown the Pico.
