Silicon Errata and Data Sheet Clarification
The PIC18F46J50 family devices that you have received
For example, to identify the silicon revision level using
MPLAB IDE in conjunction with MPLAB ICD 2 or
PICkit™ 3:
conform functionally to the current Device Data Sheet
(DS39931C), except for the anomalies described in this
document.
1. Using the appropriate interface, connect the
device to the MPLAB ICD 2 programmer/
debugger or PICkit™ 3.
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.
2. From the main menu in MPLAB IDE, select
Configure>Select Device, and then select the
target part number in the dialog box.
The errata described in this document will be addressed
in future revisions of the PIC18F46J50 family silicon.
3. Select
the
MPLAB
hardware
tool
(Debugger>Select Tool).
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
(Rev. A4).
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.
Note:
If you are unable to extract the silicon
revision level, please contact your local
Microchip sales office for assistance.
Data Sheet clarifications and corrections start on page 8,
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).
The DEVREV values for the various PIC18F46J50 family
silicon revisions are shown in Table 1.

Note 1: The Device IDs (DEVID and DEVREV) are located at the last two implemented addresses of configuration
memory space. They are shown in hexadecimal in the format “DEVID DEVREV”.
