Description
Port, board and/or hardware
Pico 2 / RP2350
MicroPython version
MicroPython v1.24.0-preview.201.g269a0e0e1 on 2024-08-09; Raspberry Pi Pico2 with RP2350
Reproduction
- Install latest Firmware from https://micropython.org/download/RPI_PICO2/
- Implement
machine.deepsleep(5000)in your code - Run code.
Expected behaviour
Expected Pico 2 to enter deepsleep mode for 5 seconds, then continue to next bit of code.
Observed behaviour
Upon reaching deepsleep, the LED on my Pico blinks when it reaches that part of the code, but Thonny's console outputs:
PROBLEM IN THONNY'S BACK-END: Exception while handling 'Run' (ConnectionError: read failed: [Errno 6] Device not configured).
See Thonny's backend.log for more info.
You may need to press "Stop/Restart" or hard-reset your MicroPython device and try again.
Process ended with exit code 1.
Unable to connect to /dev/cu.usbmodem83101: [Errno 2] could not open port /dev/cu.usbmodem83101: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/cu.usbmodem83101'
Contents of backend.log after the Shell displays that error:

Additional Information
Full code example:
# Lightsleep MicroPython example.
from machine import Pin
import time
led = Pin(25, Pin.OUT)
while True:
led.toggle()
time.sleep_ms(5000)
led.toggle()
machine.deepsleep(5000)
On the original Pico, deepsleep was, I believe, an alias to lightsleep. On Pico 2, it looks like there are deeper sleep states that may be implemented and an internal RTC that can be used to wake the chip... is it possible that either the deepsleep option could differ on the Pico 2, or should it just remain an alias to lightsleep?
Either way, the behavior here is different than lightsleep—which also breaks right now, see #15622.

Yes, I agree
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Reproduce machine.deepsleep(5000) on a Pico 2 using the firmware and full example in the issue, then compare its behavior with machine.lightsleep and issue #15622. Done means the board wakes after five seconds, continues execution, and does not lose its USB connection or crash.
