Pico w Support for 16MB?

[FlydGitHub]

Hi,

Can anyone point me to a source of:

a Pico w with 16MB of off-chip Flash memory?

Thanks

None yet that I know of. Raspberry Pi seem to be only producing 2 MB Pico Ws, and I haven't seen any clone boards of the W.

Thank you Stewart,

Do you know how I can find out how much flash is avable in both MicroPython and CircuitPython?

In MicroPython, the number of bytes free is given by

os.statvfs('/')[3] * os.statvfs('/')[0]

More details in os.statvfs(). My Pico had about 1.3 MB free out of the 2 MB flash size. Pico Ws will have less free space

I think CircuitPython may be the same

The Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect has 16Mbytes of Flash. There's a standard MicroPython port for this. It doesn't have the same radio as the Pico W and has other peripherals. My understanding is that the network API should be the same. The board has the standard Arduino Nano format.
