The boards are in and everything works perfectly
Gerbers, schematic and design files
Pico Computer 3 2026-06-25.zip
Cost for 5 boards fully built is just under USD180 + any applicable tax and shipping. You can save money by soldering headers etc. yourself. I bought them without headers, flash, RTC, PSRAM and UART chips and cannibalised old boards for these, that brought the price under USD100. JLC don't stock the wireless module but it is available from Pimoroni amongst other places. Of course, it isn't needed for the board to work with one of the non-Web firmware builds. It can run any of the RP2350 firmware builds and you can use OPTION RESET PICO COMPUTER 3 to configure it.
I have 3 spares available for GBP40 for anyone in the UK who wants one - PM me if interested. GBP44 if you want the wireless module included.
