PIC18F87J11 FAMILY
The PIC18F87J11 family devices that you have
received conform functionally to the current Device
Data Sheet (DS39778D), except for the anomalies
described in this document.
The silicon issues discussed in the following pages are
for silicon revisions with the Device and Revision IDs
listed in Table 1. The silicon issues are summarized in
Table 2.
The errata described in this document will be
addressed in future revisions of the PIC18F87J11
family silicon.
Data Sheet clarifications and corrections start on page 5,
following the discussion of silicon issues.
The silicon revision level can be identified using the
current version of MPLAB
®
IDE and Microchip’s
programmers, debuggers and emulation tools, which
are available at the Microchip corporate web site
(www.microchip.com).
For example, to identify the silicon revision level using
MPLAB IDE in conjunction with MPLAB ICD 2 or
PICkit™ 3:
1. Using the appropriate interface, connect the
device to the MPLAB ICD 2 programmer/
debugger or PICkit™ 3.
2. From the main menu in MPLAB IDE, select
Configure>Select Device
, and then select the
target part number in the dialog box.
3. Select the MPLAB hardware tool
(Debugger>Select Tool
).
4. Perform a “Connect” operation to the device
(Debugger>Connect
). Depending on the devel-
opment tool used, the part number and Device
Revision ID value appear in the Output window.
The DEVREV values for the various PIC18F87J11
family silicon revisions are shown in Table 1.
Note: This document summarizes all silicon
errata issues from all revisions of silicon,
previous as well as current. Only the
issues indicated in the last column of
Table 2 apply to the current silicon
revision (A6) or (C2), respectively.
Note: If you are unable to extract the silicon
revision level, please contact your local
Microchip sales office for assistance.
