Overview
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.

How Arduino Education helped educator James Jones boost students’ 21st century skills and robotics knowledge across 23 middle schools in Orlando, Florida. More and more teachers face the difficulty of instilling the right skills and knowledge, as well as a flexible mindset, that better prepare their students for future career opportunities. “Today, students need to be thinking about careers in middle school,” Jones said. “If students wait until they are juniors or seniors in high school to decide, their options are already getting slim. Finding a direction in middle school allows for research, job shadowing, and internships in high school. This will translate into more jobs that require more of these skills as part of the daily workplace. This way they know what a career really looks like, instead of jumping into a job and finding out that they are miserable.” The challenge: learning about careers you love at a young age Many countries have recently approved changes in their curricula and education systems to allow earlier access to technology in the classroom. In Finland, technology education is not a separate subject but a cross-curricular, interdisciplinary topic studied within various classes. In Florida, the Workforce Education law requires that students explore their career options during grades 6-8, at ages 12 to 14. How Arduino Education helped Jones spent last summer looking for a solution to assist him the following semester. He wanted to think big and reach as many schools as possible in Orange County, so he applied for and won the Title IV grant through the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) program. He used the grant to fund 23 middle schools and chose Arduino Education’s products, CTC GO! Core Module and the Arduino Starter Kit, to improve students’ robotics, programming, and coding skills. “This past summer we ran two weeks of camps for rising eighth-graders. It was a transition camp at our feeder high school,"
