PicoMo
by HEIA-FR
The PicoMo, based on a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller chip, has been developed by HEIA-FR’s Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Communication Systems departments. With its display, temperature and humidity sensor, multicolor LED and buzzer, it can be used in a variety of ways.
This module has no battery to promote durability: you need to connect it to your smartphone or computer with a USB cable to make it work.
To flash a new .uf2 file and enter bootloader mode, turn on your PicoMo while pressing and holding the S7 button. This should make it appear as a drive named RPI-RP2 on your computer.

Absolute Newest
Every time we commit new code to CircuitPython we automatically build binaries for each board and language. The binaries are stored on Amazon S3, organized by board, and then by language. These releases are even newer than the development release listed above. Try them if you want the absolute latest and are feeling daring or want to see if a problem has been fixed.
Previous Versions of CircuitPython
All previous releases of CircuitPython are available for download from Amazon S3 through the button below. For very old releases, look in the OLD/ folder for each board. Release notes for each release are available at GitHub button below.
Older releases are useful for testing if you something appears to be broken in a newer release but used to work, or if you have older code that depends on features only available in an older release. Otherwise we recommend using the latest stable release.
