Description
PIC18LF4320 offers the advantages of all PIC18 microcontrollers ñ namely, high computational performance at an economical price with the addition of highendurance Enhanced Flash program memory. On top of these features, the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320 family introduces design enhancements that make these microcontrollers a logical choice for many high-performance, power sensitive applications. All of the devices in the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320 family incorporate a range of features that can significantly reduce power consumption during operation Alternate Run Modes: By clocking the controller from the Timer1 source or the internal oscillator block, power consumption during code execution can be reduced by as much as 90% Multiple Idle Modes: The controller can also run with its CPU core disabled, but the peripherals are still active. In these states, power consumption can be reduced even further, to as little as 4%, of normal operation requirements. On-the-Fly Mode Switching: The power-managed modes are invoked by user code during operation, allowing the user to incorporate power-saving ideas into their applicationís software design. Lower Consumption in Key Modules: The power requirements for both Timer1 and the Watchdog Timer have been reduced by up to 80%, with typical values of 1.8 and 2.2 µA, respectively. All of the devices in the PIC18F2220/2320/4220/4320 family offer nine different oscillator options, allowing users a wide range of choices in developing application hardware. These include: ï Four Crystal modes using crystals or ceramic resonators. ï Two External Clock modes offering the option of using two pins (oscillator input and a divide-by-4 clock output) or one pin (oscillator input with the second pin reassigned as general I/O). ï Two External RC Oscillator modes with the same pin options as the External Clock modes. ï An internal oscillator block, which provides a 31 kHz INTRC clock and an 8 MHz clock with 6 program selectable divider ratios (4 MHz to 125 kHz) for a total of 8 clock frequencies
