PIC18F4450-I/P
PIC18F4450-I/P - 8-bit 48MHz 16KB Flash USB MCU | Microchip
The Microchip Technology PIC18F4450-I/P is an 8-bit RISC microcontroller from the PIC18F family that integrates a Full-Speed USB 2.0 (12 Mbit/s) transceiver and 16 KB of enhanced Flash program memory in a 40-pin PDIP through-hole package. Operating at up to 48 MHz system clock from a 4.2 V to 5.5 V supply, the device delivers approximately 16 MIPS throughput and combines a 10-bit ADC with up to 13 channels, a USART, MSSP (SPI/I2C), nanoWatt power management, and a 35-pin I/O complement.
What is a PIC18F microcontroller? PIC18F is Microchip's enhanced 8-bit PIC microcontroller family, positioned between the baseline PIC16 and the 16-bit dsPIC families in Microchip's portfolio. These parts share a RISC Harvard architecture, a unified instruction set, and a powerful peripheral set, making them ideal for embedded control applications that require deterministic interrupt response, low power, and easy migration between pin counts. The 4450 sub-family specifically adds an on-chip USB 2.0 Full-Speed transceiver and is targeted at applications such as human-interface devices, USB-to-UART bridges, and embedded hosts that previously required an external USB controller.
Key features include 16 KB (8K x 16) Flash program memory, 768 bytes of RAM, 256 bytes of EEPROM, 34 digital I/O pins, 13 10-bit ADC channels, two 8-bit timers and three 16-bit timers, a Capture/Compare/PWM module, hardware USB 2.0 Full-Speed with internal pull-up resistor, and nanoWatt power-saving modes with idle and sleep states drawing only microamps. The 40-pin PDIP (0.600 inch) package allows hand-soldering, breadboarding, and socketed prototypes.
The architecture uses an 8-bit data path with a 16-bit instruction word and a hardware multiplier for single-cycle 8x8 multiplication. The integrated USB SIE handles bus enumeration, bulk/interrupt/isochronous endpoints, and suspend/resume signaling, eliminating external transceivers. On-chip peripherals are prioritized via a vectored interrupt controller with two priority levels, allowing deterministic real-time response for USB traffic and motor-control PWM.
Typical applications include USB human-interface devices (HID mice, keyboards, custom peripherals), USB-to-serial converter dongles, low-cost data loggers, sensor read-out boards, industrial control panels, and educational/training boards where the through-hole package simplifies lab work.
When designing with the PIC18F4450, supply decoupling of at least 100 nF near each power pin and a 10 uF bulk capacitor on VDD is essential, and the USB D+/D- traces must be 90 ohm differential and length-matched. The internal 48 MHz PLL is enabled by configuration fuses and requires the HS or HSPLL oscillator mode for USB operation; an external 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, or 48 MHz crystal with appropriate load capacitors must be selected per the oscillator configuration fuse settings.
