From the project
RP2040-based board with Arduino Uno footprint
The RP2040-Eins project aims to create a replacement for the Arduino UNO R3 or Arduino M0 using the RP2040 MCU.
The RP2040-Eins board is a 4-layer design intended to accommodate the popular Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU within the standard Arduino UNO R3 footprint.
This board is crafted in Germany, and its name, "RP2040-Eins", incorporates the German word "Eins" (pronounced as "eye-ns"), which translates to "one". This name choice reflects the use of the same form-factor as the Arduino "Uno", which means "one" in Italian.
