Official Arduino Portenta Mid Carrier Development Board - ASX00055
Official Arduino Portenta Mid Carrier Development Board The Arduino Portenta Mid Carrier stands as an indispensable Arduino prototyping board, meticulously engineered to significantly accelerate and streamline project development cycles when utilized with the powerful Portenta C33, Portenta H7, and Portenta X8 System on Modules. This highly versatile Arduino Mid Carrier Board greatly simplifies the complex task of prototyping by granting immediate and effortless access to the full spectrum of high-density signals available on the attached Portenta module, exposed through conveniently placed and clearly marked dedicated headers. Furthermore, it enriches the development experience by integrating a comprehensive suite of commonly required onboard peripherals. These include a mini PCIe connector for expansion modules like cellular modems, two robust CAN (Controller Area Network) interfaces for industrial communication (one featuring an onboard transceiver), a standard Gigabit Ethernet port for wired networking, a microSD card slot for data logging or booting from external storage, a USB-A port for connecting various USB devices, and dedicated camera connectors compatible with both MIPI and Arducam standards for machine vision applications. To further enhance the developer's workflow, the Portenta Carrier Board thoughtfully incorporates dedicated JTAG debug pins for in-depth troubleshooting and an RTC (Real-Time Clock) with a battery backup socket, ensuring time-sensitive applications maintain accuracy even when main power is removed. These features collectively establish it as an ideal and robust platform for the rapid creation and iteration of scalable, industry-ready applications, while also serving as an invaluable and straightforward reference design for those looking to develop their own custom hardware solutions based on the Portenta ecosystem.
