Alternative Raspberry Pi Pico Header Placement

Sunday, August 11th 2024

Sometimes you just have to try something new. A while back I was working on a project using the Raspberry Pi Pico. I noticed that the Pico has a nice silk screen pinout listing on the back. When installing headers normally (boot button up), this gets covered up. Why not flip the Pico over and make it easy to read? So I did just that. Above you can see my example. The only disadvantage is that the boot button is now on the underside. But generally this button should not be needed that often. Hope this may have inspired you in your projects. Enjoy!
