Using Raspberry Pi Pico with u2d2 board

[Jonathon]

@Yahya_amirinejad

As Kneave stated, the RaspberryPi Pico is not compatible with the U2D2 controller.

You may be able to implement one of the solutions suggested by roboteer and control your DYNAMIXELs directly from the UART of the Pico. If you do go this route, then this community page post may be helpful in establishing UART communications.

RPi driving dynamixel from UART at 1Mbps

I have tested a proof of concept of driving a XL430 from the UART port of a RPi at 1Mbps. The RPi has 2 UARTs: UART1 and mini UART. The mini UART isn’t stable at 1Mbps but the hardware of the UART1 is capable of much faster speeds than 1Mbps, the main limitation is the operating systems usage of the UART. To get a stable 1Mbps from RPi UART I had to enable UART1 and increase the UART clock speed as the default clock speed is too low to generate UART at 1Mbps. I added the following 2 lines to t…
