RP2040 with W5500 Ethernet module

This repository demonstrates how to use RP2040 with W5500 Ethernet module, to implement networking. In this example, a very simple HTTP server is implemented. See other examples for more functionality.

RP2040 Pico wiring

The W5500 module uses SPI for communication. The following pins are used by this example (modify main.c if you use a different pinout):

enum { LED = 25, SPI_CS = 17, SPI_CLK = 18, SPI_TX = 19, SPI_RX = 16 };

On a breadboard, it might look like this:

Pinout reference

Build and run

Clone Mongoose repo, go to this example, and build it:

git clone https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose
cd mongoose/examples/ro2040/pico-w5500
make

The above will make a firmware in build/example.uf2. Reboot your Pico board in bootloader mode, and copy example.uf2 to the RPI disk.

Attach serial console. Then, plug in Ethernet cable:
