Thanks to its computing power, the Portenta Machine Control enables a wide range of predictive maintenance and AI use cases. It enables the collection of real-time data from the factory floor and supports the remote control of equipment, even from the Cloud, when desired.
The Portenta H7 allows for programming with high-level languages and AI while performing low-latency operations on its customizable hardware.
H7's main processor is the dual core STM32H747 including a Cortex®-M7 running at 480 MHz and a Cortex®-M4 running at 240 MHz. The two cores communicate via a Remote Procedure Call mechanism that allows calling functions on the other processor seamlessly.
The Arduino Machine Control enables industry standard soft-PLC control and is able to connect to a range of external sensors and actuators with isolated digital I/O, 4-20mA compatible analog I/O, 3 configurable temperature channels, and a dedicated I2C connector.
Multiple choices are available for network connectivity, including USB, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi®/Bluetooth® LE in addition to industry specific protocols such as RS485.
The Portenta Machine Control core runs an Arduino Portenta H7 microcontroller board, a highly reliable design operating at industrial temperature ranges (-40 °C to +85 °C) with a dual-core architecture that doesn’t require any external cooling.
