PIC18F46K80T-I/PT

The PIC18F46K80T-I/PT is Microchip’s PIC18F mid‑range 8‑bit microcontroller with a built‑in USB 2.0 Full‑Speed device controller. It’s designed for USB peripheral devices (HID, CDC, custom USB classes) and general mixed‑signal control tasks. Core features typically include: an 8‑bit PIC18 core, Flash program memory, RAM, EEPROM, and a rich peripheral set (timers, PWM/CCP, ADC, comparators, USART/UART, SPI, I2C/MSSP, interrupts). It supports several oscillator options and clock speeds suitable for USB operation. The -I/PT suffix denotes packaging/temperature options (industrial temperature, specific package type such as Plastic with Tape & Reel); check the datasheet for exact packaging and temperature specs. Development is via Microchip tools (MPLAB X IDE with the XC8 compiler) and programmers/debuggers such as PICkit 4/3 or MPLAB ICD. Typical applications include USB-enabled devices, data logging, sensors interfacing, and small embedded controllers requiring USB connectivity. For exact memory sizes, pin counts, timing, and package details, refer to the official datasheet for the PIC18F46K80T-I/PT.

Key features of PIC18F46K80T-I/PT:
