Product Reference Manual
SKU: ABX00042
Description
Portenta H7 family runs high level codes along with real time tasks thanks to the two processors that makes it
possible to run tasks in parallel. For example, it is possible to execute Arduino compiled code along with
MicroPython one simultaneously, and have both cores to communicate with one another.
Target Areas:
Laboratory equipment, Computer vision

7.3 Conflict Minerals Declaration
As a global supplier of electronic and electrical components, Arduino is aware of our obligations with regards to
laws and regulations regarding Conflict Minerals, specifically the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act, Section 1502. Arduino does not directly source or process conflict minerals such as Tin, Tantalum,
Tungsten, or Gold. Conflict minerals are contained in our products in the form of solder, or as a component in
metal alloys. As part of our reasonable due diligence Arduino has contacted component suppliers within our supply
chain to verify their continued compliance with the regulations. Based on the information received thus far we
declare that our products contain Conflict Minerals sourced from conflict-free areas.
8 FCC Caution
Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
1. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
2. This equipment complies with RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
3. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator &
your body.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
English: User manuals for licence-exempt radio apparatus shall contain the following or equivalent notice in a
conspicuous location in the user manual or alternatively on the device or both. This device complies with Industry
Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
