The Portenta Mid Carrier accelerates prototype creation when used with the Portenta C33, Portenta H7 or Portenta X8 module, enabling easy access to high-density signals via connectors.
Add a variety of peripherals to your project immediately – such as mini PCIe, dual CAN lines, Ethernet, microSD, USB and camera – and enjoy dedicated debug pins and RTC battery backup that further simplify development.
Features
- An excellent prototyping tool for scalable Portenta applications
- Fast access to all Portenta high-density signals
- Expand existing projects with many connectivity options thanks to Ethernet and mPCIe connectors
- Use the built-in MicroSD card slot to boot from an external source
- Interact easily with actuators using the built-in CAN lines (with internal or external transceiver)
- Develop industrial machine-vision solutions using the built-in camera connectors
- A simple reference design for developing your own hardware
Applications
The Portenta Mid Carrier pairs with MIPI or Arducam® cameras to streamline machine-vision prototyping and can accelerate testing of cellular connections thanks to its mini PCIe connector. Ideal for smart cities and buildings, remote maintenance and fleet management.
