On the 21st of January, 2021, the Raspberry Pi Foundation released its own [microcontroller] board called the __[Raspberry Pi Pico|RaspberryPiPico]__. Despite its name, the Pico is a __microcontroller__, not a small __microcomputer__ (i.e., a Single Board Computer or SBC) like the [Raspberry Pi], uses a different CPU chipset (the __RP2040__, a proprietary design by the Raspberry Pi Foundation), and is significantly smaller and cheaper than any Pi at ''US$4''.

It comes with a C SDK, a GCC-based toolchain, Visual Studio Code integration, and can be programmed in __[Micropython]__. The RP2040 CPU is currently available in the Pico form factor as released by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, but announcements have been made by many vendors like Adafruit and Pimoroni for Feather, Itsy Bitsy, QT, Tiny, and other familiar designs.

The first block sets the SDA and SCL pins for I2C Controller 0 to pin 8 and 9 (resp.), then writes 3 bytes of data to the slave address 76, then reads 4 bytes back from the same address. The second configures I2C Controller 1 to pin 6 and 7, then writes 3 bytes to memory address starting at 6, then reads 4 bytes starting at address 2 of the slave at memory address 76.
{{{
from machine import Pin, I2C
i2c = I2C(0, scl=Pin(9), sda=Pin(8), freq=100000)
i2c.scan() # scan for slaves, returning a list of 7-bit addresses
i2c.writeto(42, b'123') # write 3 bytes to slave with 7-bit address 42
i2c.readfrom(42, 4) # read 4 bytes from slave with 7-bit address 42

For further information consult the [documentation for the Micropython machine library for I2C|https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/machine.I2C.html], or the [C++ API|https://raspberrypi.github.io/pico-sdk-doxygen/group__hardware__i2c.html]. Note that I2C can be established either via hardware or software on the Pico.
