An **external power source of 6 V to 36 V is required** to use the Mini PCIe connector to maintain stable operation, especially for high-power consumption applications. To enable the Mini PCIe interface on the Portenta Max Carrier, the PCIE ENABLE (PWM6) pin requires 3.3 V and a compatible Mini PCIe module. The PCIE ENABLE (PWM6) is the 33rd pin of the High-Density Connector (HDC) Stacker Connector (J5).
