You can get the oscilloscope like I use in this lesson. Note, you do not have to have an oscilloscope to complete this class, but it is helpful in troubleshooting your circuits:

In this class we will be using the Sunfounder Raspberry Pi Pico W Keppler Kit. It will make things a lot easier if we are working on identical hardware. the link below is to amazon, and is for the identical hardware I will be using in this entire class.
In this video, I describe how you can save calibration and other data to the flash memory on the Pi Pico. This allows you to reload critical data when the program runs. This allows the system to remember its configuration in case power is lost. The memory is limited to 100,000 write cycles, so you do not want to use this as a general data logger. Also the memory is limited to 2 MB and is shared with pi programs. But this is an important skill to have for mission critical data. Enjoy!
