In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to wire, calibrate (X / Y axes) and use an HMC5883L device, also known as a magnetometer, with Raspberry PI Pico using MicroPython. Many projects (like robotic ones) need to get info about spacial position and direction. In this sense, one of the most useful devices
In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to connect, configure and use a Raspberry PI Pico Ethernet Port with WIZnet Ethernet HAT. We’ll use CircuitPython to connect the interface as, actually, the MicroPython libraries are under development. Raspberry PI Pico works greatly to keep sensors measurements, combining/analyzing them and delivering data to external
