rp-hal is a Rust Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) implementing embedded-hal for the Raspberry Pi RP2040 and RP235x series microcontrollers. It provides high-level drivers and board support packages for programming Raspberry Pi Pico boards in Rust.

Use cases

  • write Rust firmware for Raspberry Pi Pico
  • program RP2040 microcontroller in Rust
  • blink LEDs and read GPIO on RP235x
  • use PIO state machines on Pico
  • build embedded Rust projects with embedded-hal traits
  • flash UF2 images to Pico 2 via USB bootloader

When to choose

  • you want to develop Rust applications for RP2040 or RP235x microcontrollers
  • you need a safe, high-level API over Raspberry Pi Pico hardware
  • you want embedded-hal compatible drivers for Pico boards

When to avoid

  • you are programming a Raspberry Pi single-board computer (Linux) rather than the microcontrollers
  • you need C/C++ SDK support or MicroPython instead of Rust
  • your target microcontroller is not from the RP series
