    Overview

    Multiple minor bug fixes across many subsystems. Adds SDIO (4-bit high speed) SD card support and moves to untouched SdFat upstream library. Speeds of up to 15MB/s with this mode have been shown, well above 1-bit SPI mode (but it does require a new physical adapter with all 4 DAT0...DAT3 pins). ExFAT support is now enabled as well, allowing for very large card access.

    SD/SDFS

    • Replace ESP8266SdFat w/SdFat 2.3.0, SDIO, ExFAT (#2764)

    Library updates

    • Update to LittleFS v2.10.1 (#2762)
    • Update to Adafruit TinyUSB 3.4.2 (#2761)

    New boards

    • Add SparkFun IoT Node LoRaWAN (#2745)

    Miscellaneous bug fixes

    • Change duty cycle of PIO Tone to 50% (#2770)
    • PIOProgram: Replace __pioHighGPIO with pio_get_gpio_base() (#2769)
    • Fix ADCInput clocks for multiple inputs (#2755)
    • Restore Bluetooth TLV on Pico2/RPiWiFi boards (#2753)
    • Correct return from NTP.waitSet() (#2736)
    • Remove unneeded SDK files from libpico/etc. (#2733)
    • Remove SDK C++ new/delete, duplicated objects (#2760)

    Overview

    Minor quality-of-life release for audio output, especially PWMAudio. Precalculating values turns a 65K soft-FPU operation into a linear search of 12 entries in 99.9% of the cases.

    I2S and PWMAudio and BluetoothAudio now share a common audio interface to simplify code like BackgroundAudio or ESP8266Audio.

    Audio-related

    • Allow setting PWMAudio frequency before begin (#2726)
    • Properly wrap AudioBufferManager block writes (#2725)
    • Add AudioOutputBase keyword
    • Precalculate common PWMAudio dividers, avoid noise (#2714)
    • Add real block write for AudioRequestBuffer (#2712)
    • Overclock to 153.6 MHz (instead of 147.6 MHz) for I²S 48 kHz sample rate (#2708)

    Infrastructure

    • Use the distributed ARM ar in libpico, not system (#2721)
    • Don't go through runtime initializers when there is no OTA command (#2697)
    • Fix issue with undefined LED_BUILTIN on Seeed Xiao RP2350 (#2704)
