ADIY W5500-EVB-Pico RP2040 Evaluation Board

W5500-EVB-Pico RP2040 Evaluation Board with Ethernet is a microcontroller evaluation board based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 and fully hardwired TCP/IP controller W5500 – and works the same as Raspberry Pi Pico board but with additional Ethernet via W5500.W5500-EVB-Pico pinout is directly connected to the GPIO of RP2040. It has the same pinout as the Raspberry Pi Pico board. However, GPIO16, GPIO17, GPIO18, GPIO19, GPIO20, GPIO21 are connected to W5500 inside the board. These pins enable SPI communication with W5500 to use the Ethernet function. If you are using the Ethernet function, these pins cannot be used for any other purpose.

The W5500 chip is a Hardwired Internet controller designed as a full hardwired TCP/IP stack with WIZnet technology. W5500 provides Internet connectivity to your embedded systems by using SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface). SPI provides easy connection via external MCU to W5500. The clock speed of W5500 SPI supports up to 80MHz.

Since W5500 integrates the Hardwired TCP/IP stack with 10/100 Ethernet MAC and PHY, it is truly a one-chip solution for stable internet connectivity. WIZnet’s Hardwired TCP/IP stack supports TCP, UDP, IPv4, ICMP, ARP, IGMP, and PPPoE – and it has been proven through various applications over the last decade.

W5500 provides 8 independent SOCKETs to be used simultaneously and 32KB internal memory for data communication. Users can develop an Ethernet application easily by using the simple W5500 SOCKET program instead of handling a complex Ethernet controller. W5500 also provides WOL (Wake on LAN) and a Power Down Mode to reduce power consumption.
