General • Re: Pico W debugging and SMD

After the fact, I realized that I have no way to attach my debug probe to the SWD port. I tried soldering some pins to the holes left over from the top, but I think I killed the Pico W during this process.

It shouldn't be difficult to attach wires from the top only as its only a 0.1" throughhole header. Is your soldering iron very hot or the tip is very big?

- Is it possible to surface-mount the Pico W and have access to the SWD debug port?

Put 3 pads under the SWD interface and then traces to bring it out somewhere convenient. The Pico W datasheet has the coordinates of the pads.
