Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and Debug Probe

This skill covers development with Raspberry Pi Pico 2 (RP2350) boards and the Raspberry Pi Debug Probe. It includes hardware specs, SDK setup, build configuration, debugging workflows, and common pitfalls.

Quick Reference

Board Selection (CMake)

Board	CMake Flag	Platform
Pico 1	`-DPICO_BOARD=pico` (default)	rp2040
Pico 1 W	`-DPICO_BOARD=pico_w`	rp2040
Pico 2	`-DPICO_BOARD=pico2`	rp2350-arm-s
Pico 2 W	`-DPICO_BOARD=pico2_w`

Target	Config File
Pico 1 (RP2040)	`target/rp2040.cfg`
Pico 2 (RP2350)	`target/rp2350.cfg`
Pico 2 RISC-V	`target/rp2350.cfg` with `-c "set USE_CORE { rv0 rv1 }"`
Rescue (RP2350)	`target/rp2350.cfg` with `-c "set RESCUE 1"`

# Terminal 1: OpenOCD
openocd -f interface/cmsis-dap.cfg -f target/rp2350.cfg -c "adapter speed 5000"

# Terminal 2: GDB
arm-none-eabi-gdb my_app.elf
(gdb) target remote localhost:3333
(gdb) monitor reset init
(gdb) load
(gdb) break main
(gdb) continue

openocd -f interface/cmsis-dap.cfg -f target/rp2350.cfg \
  -c "adapter speed 5000" \
  -c "program my_app.elf verify reset exit"

SDK defaults to Pico 1. You must explicitly pass -DPICO_BOARD=pico2 to target RP2350. Forgetting this builds for RP2040 and the binary will not run on a Pico 2.
Use the Raspberry Pi fork of OpenOCD. Upstream OpenOCD (0.12.0) lacks full RP2350 support. Clone from https://github.com/raspberrypi/openocd.git branch rpi-common.
Wrong target config = failed connection. Using rp2040.cfg with a Pico 2 silently fails. Always match the target config to the chip.
SWD uses .elf, BOOTSEL uses .uf2. These are different formats for different flashing methods. Do not try to flash a .uf2 via OpenOCD/SWD.
Debug builds required for meaningful debugging. Always pass -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug to cmake. Release builds optimise away variable state and reorder code, making breakpoints unreliable.
RISC-V mode has no FPU. The hardware floating-point unit is only available on Cortex-M33. RISC-V mode uses software float, which is significantly slower for float-heavy code.
RISC-V requires a clean build directory. When switching between ARM and RISC-V, delete the build directory and re-run cmake. In-place switching does not work.
RISC-V debugging requires pre-selection. The RP2350 boots into Cortex-M33 by default. To debug RISC-V: picotool reboot -u -c riscv, then use OpenOCD with set USE_CORE { rv0 rv1 }.
Debug Probe does not power the target. The Pico 2 must be powered via its own USB or VSYS. The SWD connector carries no power.
LED pin differs on wireless models. Non-wireless Pico 2 uses GP25 for the onboard LED. Pico 2 W uses WL_GPIO0 through the CYW43439 wireless chip. Code must be conditional.
Git submodules are required. The pico-sdk needs git submodule update --init to pull tinyusb, cyw43-driver, lwip, btstack, and mbedtls. Missing submodules cause cryptic build failures.
OTP is irreversible. Writing OTP bits is permanent. Misconfiguring secure boot (setting SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE without a boot key and with PICOBOOT disabled) permanently bricks the device.
Wireless SPI pin sharing. On Pico 2 W, the VSYS ADC reading and CYW43439 IRQ checking are blocked during SPI transactions to the wireless chip.
Connect GND first. When the Pico 2 is powered from a separate source, connect GND between the target and Debug Probe before any signal lines. Voltage differences can damage the probe.
macOS: OpenOCD needs hidapi and libusb. Install via brew install hidapi libusb. If OpenOCD cannot find the probe, check no other process (VS Code, another OpenOCD instance) holds the USB device.
Multiple debug probes. If multiple CMSIS-DAP devices are connected, specify the serial number: adapter serial <serial_number> in your OpenOCD config.
