Arduino Portenta Mid Carrier (ASX00055)

Reference: ARD ASX00055

Portenta Mid Carrier accelerates prototyping with your Portenta C33, Portenta H7, or Portenta X8, allowing you to effortlessly access high-density signals through dedicated headers.
Instantly add a range of peripherals to your project – including mini PCIe, two CAN lines, Ethernet, microSD, USB, and camera – and enjoy dedicated debug pins and RTC battery backup to simplify development even further.

Key benefits include

Great prototyping tool for scalable Portenta applications
Quickly access all Portenta’s high-density signals
Expand existing projects with multiple connectivity options, thanks to Ethernet and mPCIe connectors
Leverage onboard MicroSD card slot to boot from an external source
Easily interact with actuators deploying the onboard CAN lines (with onboard or offboard transceiver)
Develop industrial machine vision solutions exploiting onboard camera connectors
Simple reference design to develop proprietary hardware

Applications

The Portenta Mid Carrier combines with MIPI or Arducam® cameras to streamline machine vision prototyping, and can accelerate cellular connectivity testing thanks to its mini PCIe connector. Perfect for smart cities and buildings, remote maintenance, and fleet management.
