Key Features

  • 8-bit PIC18 core running up to 64 MHz (48 MHz maximum with internal oscillator) for high-speed embedded control
  • Wide supply voltage range: operates at 1.8 V minimum at 16 MHz and 2 V at 20 MHz for ultra-low-power battery designs
  • 64 KB Flash with 1024 B EEPROM enables extensive firmware storage with on-chip non-volatile parameter retention
  • 28-pin SPDIP through-hole package simplifies breadboard prototyping, socketed installations, and field replacement

Applications

The PIC18F26K20-E/SP is well suited for hobbyist projects, university lab designs, and industrial embedded controllers that require a through-hole 28-pin DIP package for easy breadboard and socket mounting. Its 64 KB Flash, integrated ADC, and operation from 1.8 V minimum at 16 MHz make it a practical choice for battery-powered sensor nodes, serial communication gateways, and legacy system upgrades needing a proven PIC18 architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what minimum supply voltage and clock speed can the PIC18F26K20-E/SP reliably operate?

The PIC18F26K20-E/SP operates from a minimum supply voltage of 1.8 V while running the CPU at up to 16 MHz. It supports 2 V supply at 20 MHz and reaches its maximum 64 MHz clock at full voltage, providing a wide operating envelope for designs ranging from single-cell lithium batteries to standard 5 V supply rails.

How does the 28-pin SPDIP package of the PIC18F26K20-E/SP benefit prototyping and maintenance workflows?

The 28-pin SPDIP through-hole package fits standard breadboards and DIP sockets, making the PIC18F26K20-E/SP easy to insert, remove, and replace without soldering tools. This format is especially valuable in university labs, development prototypes, and field-serviceable industrial panels where changing a microcontroller running at up to 64 MHz must be fast and solderless.

What non-volatile storage capacity does the PIC18F26K20-E/SP provide for firmware and user data?

The PIC18F26K20-E/SP includes 64 KB of Flash program memory for application firmware plus 1024 bytes of EEPROM for non-volatile data such as calibration coefficients, configuration settings, or device serial numbers. This combination eliminates the need for external EEPROM devices in most embedded control and data logging applications.

When is PIC18F26K20-E/SP a more practical alternative to a surface-mount PIC18 device for small-batch production?

For small-batch or prototype production runs of fewer than 500 units, the 28-pin SPDIP package of PIC18F26K20-E/SP avoids the SMT reflow oven requirements that surface-mount packages demand. Manual assembly, socketed field repair, and hand-soldering are all straightforward with SPDIP, reducing tooling costs for low-volume industrial controller or educational kit production using the 64 MHz PIC18 core.
