4 Functional Overview
The Arduino Portenta Mid Carrier is a powerful tool for developing scalable Portenta-based applications, providing
quick access to all high-density signals. It enables expansion with Ethernet and the onboard Mini PCIe connector,
with the added capability of cellular connectivity through the Mini PCIe interface for applications that need remote
access or communication. This makes it even more versatile for projects like smart cities and IoT. Booting projects
from external sources is easy with the microSD card slot, and interacting with actuators is straightforward with
onboard CAN bus lines. The carrier also supports industrial machine vision with dedicated camera connectors and
offers a reliable foundation for creating proprietary hardware, streamlining the development process across various
projects.
