MIKROE has announced Click shield for Arduino Portenta. This shield provides a simple means of combining Arduino Portenta’s functionality with the breadth and depth of MIKROE’s 1600+-strong family of Click board peripheral add-on boards. The shield comes equipped with two mikroBUS sockets, enabling developers to integrate a wide range of functions—from sensors and communication modules to advanced audio processing and motor control—with the powerful Arduino Portenta.
The Arduino Portenta supports simultaneous execution of Arduino code and MicroPython, offering robust connectivity options like WiFi, BLE, and optional LoRa or cellular modules. Its modular design enhances its adaptability for additional hardware, suiting it for industrial use in demanding environments such as machinery, PLCs, and robotics. Additionally, Portenta can handle AI and machine learning applications, allowing for the implementation of intelligent IoT solutions directly on the device.
