Adafruit is celebrating Lunar New Year🐍 Wednesday 1/29/2025. In combination with MLKDay, shipping could be delayed. Please allow extra time for your order to ship!
RAKwireless has become the latest big name to build something around the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller, building it into the heart of its new RAK11300 WisDuo LPWAN LoRa module — and, by extension, the RAK11310 WisBlock module.
Launched earlier this year, the RP2040 is Raspberry Pi’s first in-house silicon and at the time of writing its only microcontroller. Featuring a dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ processor and 264kB of static RAM, a key feature of the chip is a set of programmable input/output (PIO) blocks — offering impressive flexibility which belies its $1 retail price.
The RAK11300 WisDuo LPWAN module is a WisDuo module that gives you the power of the dual core Raspberry RP2040 MCU running in 133MHz. And of course, we added the SX1262 LoRa transceiver chip to open the world of LoRa and LoRaWAN connectivity to this module.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
