Raspberry Pi Radio Module 2<\/a> packages the same Infineon CYW43439 radio used on Raspberry Pi Pico W<\/a> and Pico 2 W<\/a>, and is an ideal choice for RP2040\u2013 and RP2350-based products that require turnkey wireless connectivity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cost-effective, easy-to-integrate radio connectivity<\/h2>\n

As our RP2040 and RP2350 customers go to scale, they often ask us for a wireless solution which provides software and feature-set compatibility with Raspberry Pi Pico-series devices.<\/p>\n

We designed Radio Module 2 with these customers in mind. It features castellated edge pads and an on-board 2.4GHz antenna for ease of design and assembly, and a low-pin-count SPI host interface which makes efficient use of the host CPU\u2019s I\/O budget. Its compact 16.5mm \u00d7 14.5mm form factor and minimal external component requirements (just a host CPU and power) drive down mass-production costs. And, like all our recent Raspberry Pi computers, Radio Module 2 comes with full modular certification, making it an ideal choice for designers who wish to avoid the tricky and expensive radio certification process.<\/p>\n

Raspberry Pi Pico SDK and MicroPython provide a proven, supported software stack, and a straightforward development experience, from prototyping with Pico W or Pico 2 W to production with Radio Module 2.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Excellent single-antenna Wi-Fi and Bluetooth performance<\/h2>\n

Radio Module 2 offers 1\u00d71 single-band 2.4GHz Wi-Fi\u00ae 4 (802.11n) and Bluetooth\u00ae 5.2, supporting both Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy. Its integrated internal PA, LNA, and T\/R switch deliver excellent wireless performance even when sharing a single antenna between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.<\/p>\n
