-- **Memory** +## Features - - Micro SD Card Slot +### General Specifications Overview -# Contents -## The Board -The included HM-01B0 camera module has been pre-configured to work with the OpenMV libraries provided by Arduino. Based on the specific application requirements, the Portenta Vision Shield is available in two configurations with either Ethernet or LoRa® connectivity. Ethernet is designed for integration of the Portenta into wired networks and providing high bandwidth. In situations requiring long-range operation at low bandwidth, LoRa® connectivity is the way to go. The multi-core processor of the Portenta H7 makes embedded vision possible by minimizing the data bandwidth required. +The Portenta Vision Shield expands the capabilities of the Portenta H7 (any variant) or Portenta C33 family boards, adding advanced vision and audio processing features to them.
+Important note: The Portenta Vision Shield has two hardware revisions, distinguished only by the onboard camera sensor; all other features of the shield remain identical across both revisions. +
The Portenta C33 board is not compatible with the onboard camera of the Portenta Vision Shield, it is only compatible with the shield's advanced audio and connectivity features (Ethernet or LoRa® depending of the variant). +
+The table below provides a comprehensive guideline for the optimal use of the Portenta Vision Shield, outlining typical operating conditions and design limits. The operating conditions of the Portenta Vision Shield are largely a function based on its component's specifications. +
- +The core of the Portenta Vision Shield is its integration with the Portenta family boards, leveraging their processing power for advanced vision and audio applications. The Portenta Vision Shield is equipped with key peripherals, such as dual MEMS microphones (MP34DT06J) and a high-performance camera module (HM01B0 on Rev 1 and HM0360 on Rev 2), all directly interfaced with the main Portenta family board. Two different variants of the shield offer advanced connectivity capabilities, via Ethernet (variant SKU: ASX00021) and via LoRa® variant (SKU: ASX00026).
-HM-01B0 offers very low-power image acquisition and provides the possibility to perform motion detection without main processor interaction. The “Always-on” operation provides the ability to turn on the main processor when movement is detected with minimal power consumption. +### Pinout -***Note: The Portenta C33 is not compatible with the camera of the Portenta Vision Shield*** +The pinout for the Portenta Vision Shield Ethernet is shown in the figure below.
+ -### Digital Microphones + -The dual MP34DT05 digital MEMS microphones are omnidirectional and operate via a capacitive sensing element with a high (64 dB) signal-to-noise ratio. The microphones have been configured to provide separate left and right audio over a single PDM stream. +The pinout for the Portenta Vision Shield LoRa® is shown in the figure below.
-The sensing element, capable of detecting acoustic waves, is manufactured using a specialized silicon micromachining process dedicated to produce audio sensors. + + -### Micro SD Card Slot +### Block Diagram -A Micro SD card slot is available under the Portenta Vision Shield board. Available libraries allow reading and writing to FAT16/32 formatted cards. +An overview of the high-level architecture of the Portenta Vision Shield (Ethernet variant in the left and LoRa® variant on the right) is illustrated in the figure below.
+ -### Ethernet (ASX00021 Only) + -Ethernet connector allows connecting to 10/100 Base TX networks using the Ethernet PHY available on the Portenta board. +### Power Supply +The Portenta Vision Shield is powered exclusively through the VCC pins (+3V3) of its High Density Connectors (J1-J2). These connectors are designed to be used with boards from the Portenta family, such as the Portenta H7 board (any variant) or the Portenta C33 board. The power is supplied directly from the connected Portenta family board, which acts as the power source for the Portenta Vision Shield.
-### LoRa® Module (ASX00026 Only) +The detailed figure below illustrates the power architecture of the Portenta Vision Shield (Ethernet variant in the left and LoRa® variant on the right). -LoRa® connectivity is provided by the Murata CMWX1ZZABZ module. This module contains an STM32L0 processor along with a Semtech SX1276 Radio. The processor is running on Arduino open-source firmware based on Semtech code. + -## Board Operation + -### Getting Started – OpenMV +## Device Operation -The Portenta Vision Shield and Portenta H7 are supported under OpenMV. In order to easily use OpenMV download the latest OpenMV IDE **[1]** and follow the Portenta Vision Shield official documentation **[2]** to learn how to create OpenMV vision applications. +The Portenta Vision Shield is a double-sided board measuring 66.04 x 25.40 mm. It features an RJ45 connector that overhangs the top edge (present only in the Ethernet variant, SKU: ASX00021), an onboard camera positioned near the center of the board, and a LoRa® module located near the bottom edge (only in the LoRa® variant, SKU: ASX00026).
