DYI Fastbeta

A scheme compatible with the Fastbeta firmware can be completely assembled on a breadboard



Raspberry Pi 2040 and Raspberry Pi 2350 full-size modules and RP2040-zero (blue) are supported according to the pinout:

  • Raspberry Pi 2040 original
  • Raspberry Pi 2040 clone Type-C
  • Raspberry Pi 2040 clone MicroUSB
  • Raspberry Pi 2040 clone black 4/16 mb
  • RP2040-Zero clone
  • Raspberry Pi 2 2350 clone blue
  • Raspberry Pi 2 2350 original
  • Raspberry Pi 2 2350 clone red
  • Raspberry Pi 2 2350A Waveshare clone black
PSRAM module for additional RAM memory supported

PSRAM connection (RP2040 only):

PSRAM_PIN_CS=GP18
PSRAM_PIN_SCK=GP19
PSRAM_PIN_MOSI=GP20
PSRAM_PIN_MISO=GP21

supported PSRAM ICs:
Espressif ESP-PSRAM64H
apmemory APS6404L
Lyontek LY68L6400
IPUS IPS6404

RP2350 has native psram support. PSRAM connection to the RP2350 differs from the connection to the RP2040. in the RP2350 case the MISO,MOSI and CLK lines are shared with onboard Flash IC but the CS line should be connected to GP19

The most commonly used ESP-PSRAM64H:

Graphical scheme for the assembly:

To simplify the assembly, a block layout of elements with soldering points for the cable has been developed

  • microSD module
  • PCM5102 i2s audio module
  • PsRam module
