Presumably, switching it to generic hurt performance a bit.
I verified that the build-raspberry_pi_pico/boot2_padded_checksummed.S
built file has the same checksum as the old
bs2_default_padded_checksummed.S
Add SMPS mode pin to Raspi Pico pins.c; see section "4.3. Using the ADC" of the Pico datasheet for discussion.
Driving this pin high forces the onboard regulator into a lower noise PWM mode.
The RP2040 is new microcontroller from Raspberry Pi that features
two Cortex M0s and eight PIO state machines that are good for
crunching lots of data. It has 264k RAM and a built in UF2
bootloader too.
