Key Features

  • Integrated CAN 2.0B controller enables direct connection to industrial and automotive CAN networks without an external CAN controller
  • 8-bit PIC18 core clocked up to 40 MHz with 16 kB self-programmable Flash and 256 B EEPROM for embedded data logging
  • Extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C (E-grade) ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial and automotive environments

Applications

The PIC18F248-E/SO is well-suited for industrial automation nodes, automotive body-control modules, and embedded systems requiring CAN network connectivity. Its 16 kB Flash and hardware CAN 2.0B support allow it to act as a local sensor aggregator or actuator controller on a multi-node CAN bus. The 28-pin SOIC package simplifies board assembly and hand reworking in low-to-mid volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum clock frequency and Flash memory size of the PIC18F248-E/SO?

The PIC18F248-E/SO operates at up to 40 MHz and integrates 16 kB of self-programmable Flash memory along with 768 B of RAM and 256 B of data EEPROM. These resources support moderate-complexity firmware for sensor processing, CAN messaging, and real-time control loops.

Which industrial CAN bus applications can the PIC18F248-E/SO handle at -40°C?

The PIC18F248-E/SO includes a hardware CAN 2.0B controller and is rated for the extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This combination makes it a strong fit for industrial fieldbus nodes, agricultural machinery ECUs, and factory automation equipment that must operate reliably in cold or high-temperature environments.

When would PIC18F248-E/SO be a lower-cost alternative to an external CAN controller plus a separate MCU?

Because the PIC18F248-E/SO integrates a CAN 2.0B controller, I2C, SPI, and UART peripherals alongside the 8-bit PIC18 CPU in a single 28-pin SOIC package, it eliminates the need for a discrete CAN transceiver driver IC in many designs. This consolidation reduces BOM cost and board area compared to pairing a standalone CAN controller such as MCP2515 with a separate microcontroller.

How much board space does the 28-pin SOIC package of PIC18F248-E/SO require on a PCB layout?

The SOIC-28 package measures approximately 17.9 mm × 7.5 mm with a 1.27 mm pin pitch, making it easy to hand-solder and inspect. This footprint is larger than QFP alternatives but simplifies rework and is compatible with standard 28-pin SOIC sockets for prototyping and in-circuit programming.
