LilyGo T-PicoC3 ESP32-C3 RP2040 Dual MCU with 1.14 Inch Display

The LilyGo T-PicoC3 combines two microcontrollers on one board: a Raspberry Pi RP2040 and an ESP32-C3 with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 (LE). It also has a 1.14-inch IPS colour display with 135 × 240 pixels. Which of the two chips is connected to the computer depends on which way round the USB-C plug is inserted; an LED shows the active chip (blue RP2040, green ESP32-C3). As delivered, the ESP32-C3 runs the AT firmware, so the RP2040 can use it as a Wi-Fi module.
