The new and easy to use Microcontroller from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Now with a Reset button. Connect via USB, hold BOOTSEL (BT), press and release RESET(RST), then release BOOTSEL. You are now in Bootloader mode.

The mounting holes are not exactly in the same position as the original Pi Pico due to the size of USBC

Schematic

KiCad's "Net classes" have been used in this schematic (The squares and romboids in the schematic). Net classes are useful for organising different nets on the circuit. For example, you can change all tracks widths for that net in just one menu.

USB-C

Differential Pair

USB needs 90 Ohm differential traces.
According to JLCPCB impedance calculator, with a JLC7628 prepreg and 6mil (0.15mm) space between lines
I have to use 9 mil tracks -> 0.2 mm
I have to place vias because of the pinout of USB C and CP2102. Some other people have done it with no problems

W25Q16JVUXIQ

W25Q16JVUXIQ Datasheet p6 -> Use a 100nF and 1uF capacitor
RPI Pico Schematic -> Use a 100nF and 2uF decoupling capacitors. A pull up resistor is not fitted
Hardware design with rp2040 p9 -> Use a 100nF decoupling capacitor. Pull up resistor is not fitted, the flash can work without it.
I will only place the 100nF capacitor, since the devboard can work according to Hardware design guide. I will not place a pull up resitor

XC6206P332MR-3.3V

XC6206_Torex Datasheet p6 -> Two 1 uF ceramic capacitors on Vin and Vout

Differences with Original Raspberry Pi Pico

GPIO23 is not exposed or used. Since the voltage regulator used (XC6206...) doesn't have a Power Select mode
GPIO29_ADC which is used for monitoring VSys (external battery) is not exposed or used in order to save costs
In the Raspberry Pi Pico Schematic, 2uF capacitors are used for decoupling. I use 1uF decoupling capacitors as indicated in the rp2040 datasheet
ADC_AVDD is powered only by 3.3V, no option for external Analog powering. This will be more noisy for projects where ADC is used. But in order to save space and cost. I will skip the option to power ADC_AVDD externally
