128
Debugging capabilities are integrated directly into the Portenta Max Carrier and are accessible via microUSB (J10). The J-link debugger is compatible with the Segger® J-Link OB and Blackmagic probes, driven by the STM32F405RGT6 controller (U15). In addition to providing access to the Portenta board JTAG ports, different sniffer channels for I2C, CAN and UART lines. The debugger firmware can be updated via SWD on CN3. Additionally, headers for debugging the LoRa® are accessible via CN2 with SWD.

An external power source of 6V to 36V is required to use the Mini PCIe slot to maintain stable operation, especially for high-power consumption applications. To enable the Mini PCIe interface on the Portenta Max Carrier, power the PCIE ENABLE (PWM6) pin with 3.3 V and install a compatible Mini PCIe module, such as the Pro 4G GNSS Module Global (SKU: TPX00200) or Pro 4G EMEA (SKU: TPX00201) Module. The PCIE ENABLE (PWM6) is the 33rd pin of the High-Density Connector (HDC) Stacker Connector (J5).
