Microchip PIC18-Q84 MCUs
The world’s first 8-bit MCUs with CAN-FD connectivity
The Microchip PIC18-Q84 MCUs combine CAN Flexible Data-Rate (CAN FD) and Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) to give embedded designers increased system capabilities at an optimal price point. These small, efficient devices allow you to add the flexibility of CAN FD communication to a larger variety of nodes in the automotive, industrial, and medical markets.
This family of 8-bit microcontrollers can bring your intelligent sensor network designs to new heights as it combines a wide array of CIPs, which allow CPU-free control of data acquisition and system management functions — with an on-chip CAN FD module for simple connectivity to the world-standard in deterministic networking interfaces for control systems. These cost-optimized MCUs are available with Flash memory of up to 128 KB and in packages of up to 48 pins. In addition, they introduce new peripherals like a customizable Universal Timer and 12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter with real-time computation and context switching.
The Microchip PIC18-Q84 MCU family’s hardware-based CIPs are incredibly easy to use and configure, eliminating the need to write software routines and reducing the work time to accomplish a task.
