## Description

Portenta Hat Carrier is a reliable and robust carrier that transforms [Portenta X8](https://store.arduino.cc/collections/portenta-family/products/portenta-x8) into an industrial single board computer compatible with Raspberry Pi® Hats and cameras. Ready for multiple industrial applications such as building automation and machine monitoring.

Compatible also with [Portenta H7](https://store.arduino.cc/collections/portenta-family/products/portenta-h7) and [Portenta C33](https://store.arduino.cc/collections/portenta-family/products/portenta-c33), Portenta Hat Carrier provides easy access to multiple peripherals – including CAN, Ethernet, microSD and USB – and further extends any Portenta application.
 
Great for prototyping and ready for scaling up, it extends the features found on a typical Raspberry Pi® Model B. Debug quickly with dedicated JTAG pins and keeps heat manageable under intense workloads with a PWM fan connector. Control actuators or read analog sensors via the additional 16x analog I/Os. Add industrial machine vision solutions to any project by leveraging the onboard camera connector.

**Key benefits include:**

- Add Raspberry Pi® Hats to your Portenta projects
- Quickly access CAN, USB, and Ethernet peripherals
- Leverage onboard MicroSD card to log data
- Enjoy simple debugging through the onboard JTAG pins
- Easily control actuators and read sensors via 16x analog I/Os
- Leveraging the onboard camera connector for machine vision
- Discover a great prototyping tool for scalable Portenta applications!
