Easily prototype your Portenta applications. Deploy in zero time.
 

Overview

Max Carrier transforms Portenta modules into single-board computers or reference designs that enable edge AI for high-performance industrial, building automation and robotics applications.
Thanks to dedicated high-density connectors, it can be paired with Portenta X8 or H7, allowing you to easily prototype and deploy your industrial projects.
This Arduino Pro carrier further augments Portenta connectivity options with Fieldbus, LoRa®, Cat-M1 and NB-IoT.
Among the many available plug-and-play connectors there are Ethernet, USB-A, audio jacks, microSD, mini-PCIe, FD-CAN and Serial RS232/422/485.
Max Carrier can be powered via external supply (6-36V) or battery via the onboard 18650 Li-ion battery connector with 3.7V battery charger.

Key benefits include:
  • Easily prototype industrial applications and minimize time to market
  • A powerful carrier exposing Portenta peripherals (e.g. CAN, RS232/422/485, USB, mPCIe)
  • Multiple connectivity options (Ethernet, LoRa®, CAT-M1, NB-IoT)
  • MicroSD for data logging operations
  • Integrated audio jacks (line-in, line-out, mic-in)
  • Standalone when battery powered
  • Onboard JTAG debugger via micro-USB (with Portenta H7 only)
     
Prototyping on Portenta projects

The Arduino Portenta Max Carrier is designed to assist developers with their prototypes by exposing the main peripherals of the high-density connectors of the Portenta family boards (H7 and X8). It allows for easy debugging through the JTAG connector and for inspection of the CAN lines through the pins. At the same time, it is the right tool to test Ethernet connectivity as well as to extend connectivity options (CAT-M1, NB-IoT and LoRa®).

Let’s connect at The Things Conference 2023
September 13, 2023

It’s time to catch up on all things LoRaWAN® and low-power IoT! Our team is looking forward to returning to The Things Conference this year, joining all LoRa® key players in Amsterdam on September 21st-22nd. Our experts will be showcasing new products and applications relevant to the technology that is putting the “smart” in smart cities, smart agriculture, smart logistics, and more. Indeed, with IoT’s huge growth potential in both B2B and B2C applications, LoRaWAN® is stepping up as one of the technologies of the future. Already established as the low-power connectivity choice, according to The Things Network it is reaping the benefits of innovations that increase efficiency even further – and is poised to support ESG (environmental, social and governance) goals with reduced energy consumption and secure data transmission. LoRaWAN® novice, or expert? We’ve got you covered Whether you are just realizing the potential of LoRaWAN® or have been a fan of it since day one (like us!), we’ll have something for you to discover at our booth at The Things Conference: Looking for an entry-level option? The Arduino MKR WAN 1310 offers you the renowned versatility of the practical and cost-effective MKR family and adds LoRa® connectivity to projects requiring low power.Ready to take it up a notch? The solution for advanced applications requiring sturdy computational power is to boost Arduino Pro’s Portenta H7 module (in any of its three variants) with the capability to run embedded computer vision applications, connect wirelessly via LoRa® to the Arduino Cloud (or third-party infrastructure), and activate systems upon the detection of sound events. How? With the Portenta Vision Shield LoRa®, of course!Feel the need for high performance? Pair the Portenta Max Carrier with a Portenta X8 module to add LoRa® connectivity to your project, transforming your robust SOM into a single-board computer or reference design enabling edge AI for
