PiShop
We designed this GPIO PCB to assist you with the MicroPython introduction tutorial found on Raspberry Pi Foundation projects. No soldering required. We will be directing you with links to the different sections of the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s introduction while supplying the code and a few fun projects on our page right here.
At the end of the tutorial we’ll be including some webpage projects for fun. You can find their webpage introduction here and our tutorial here.We included the following circuits on the board for coding/testing:
1 x RGB
3 x LED
1 x buzzer
1 x button
1 x potentiometer
Learn how to write the code to individually use the above mentioned modules. You'll also learn how to pair some of them up with exciting results. Eg. use the three LEDs to display a bargraph or progress meter indicating the value generated by the potentiometer.
What's in the box?
1 x Raspberry pi Pico W with headers
1 x PiShop's MODB beginners board for Pico and picozero
40 x Female to Female jumper cables
1 x USB A to micro B cable
1 x Double AA battery box with switch (AA batteries not included)

Resources
The Case Consists Of 6 Layers Of Acrylic Panels. Install According To The Following Steps
1. Install the active cooler on the Raspberry Pi 5.
2. Install the short standoffs and screws onto the 1st acrylic panel, please pay attention to the orientation.
3. Install the long female to female standoffs on the RPi board
4. Install the 4 acrylic panel to the sides of the Raspberry Pi 5.
Don't forget to install the little power button first.
5. Install the top plate. This is where all the bits come together. You might experience a bit of difficulty aligning all the plates. A bit of pressure on the top plate helps to get all to pop into place.
6. Insert the top 4 screws that holds it all together. You don't have to use force to tighten them.
