Mingjiada Electronics Supply/Recycle Microchip PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX High-Performance 8-Bit Microcontroller MCU

Within the embedded control sector, Microchip's PIC® series microcontrollers have consistently been the industry's preferred choice due to their high reliability, robust performance and extensive peripheral capabilities. Mingjiada Electronics consistently supplies and recycles the Microchip PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX 8-bit microcontroller. With its 64MHz operating frequency, 128KB flash memory, and compact package design, it provides core support for solutions across automotive electronics, industrial automation, and other sectors, enabling developers to efficiently implement projects.

The PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX belongs to the PIC® 18F-Q84 family, an industrial-grade 8-bit MCU engineered for high-performance scenarios, delivering maximised core performance with balanced configuration. It employs an enhanced 8-bit PIC architecture, operating at up to 64MHz with an instruction cycle as low as 62.5ns. Combined with its Harvard architecture and multi-stage data pipeline design, its code execution efficiency far surpasses traditional 8-bit microcontrollers, effortlessly handling high-speed processing demands such as real-time control and data acquisition. In terms of memory, the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX incorporates 128KB (64K×16) of Flash programme memory, 13KB of SRAM, and 1KB of data EEPROM. This ample storage capacity accommodates complex programme code storage and multi-task data processing. Support for partitioned storage and boot functions further enhances flexibility for programme updates and maintenance.

In terms of packaging, the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX utilises a 48-pin VQFN (6×6mm) surface-mount package. Integrating 44 programmable I/O pins within its compact 6×6mm footprint significantly reduces PCB space requirements, making it ideally suited for space-constrained embedded solutions in automotive electronics and portable devices. As an industrial-grade product, the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX operates across a broad temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and supports wide voltage supply from 1.8V to 5.5V. Coupled with peripherals like power-down detection/reset and a windowed watchdog timer (WWDT), it maintains stable operation in harsh industrial environments with outstanding interference resistance.

The richness and specialisation of its peripheral configuration represent a core competitive advantage of the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX. Its integrated Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) execute designated tasks autonomously without consuming CPU resources, thereby enhancing system responsiveness while reducing power consumption. Among these, the 12-bit ADC (35 channels) with calculation and context switching capabilities enables high-precision analogue signal acquisition and automatic analysis. When paired with one 8-bit DAC and an operational amplifier, it efficiently processes diverse analogue signals. Two sets of configurable 16-bit universal timers (UTMR) can be combined into a 32-bit timer, complemented by four independent PWM outputs, making it suitable for precise timing control applications such as motor speed regulation and lighting control.

For communication capabilities, the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX incorporates a CAN FD module supporting CAN 2.0A/B protocols and data transfer rates up to 10Mbps. Fully compliant with ISO 11898-1:2015 standards, it enables seamless integration into automotive and industrial CAN bus networks, meeting communication requirements for intelligent sensor nodes, body control modules, and similar applications. Additionally, it integrates multiple I²C, SPI, and UART interfaces supporting asynchronous communication, LIN bus, and other protocols, facilitating effortless connectivity with peripherals. Furthermore, this model incorporates 32-bit CRC boot memory scan and JTAG boundary scan functionality, conforming to IEC 60730 Class B and ISO 26262 ASIL B readiness standards, providing multiple layers of assurance for system safety.

Leveraging its outstanding comprehensive performance, the PIC18F57Q84-I/6MX finds extensive application across diverse scenarios. Within automotive electronics, it serves in body control systems, in-vehicle sensor terminals, and CAN FD network nodes. In industrial automation, it adapts to motor drives, instrumentation data acquisition, and building security equipment. Furthermore, it extends to consumer domains such as smart home gateways, battery management systems (BMS), and portable medical devices. Developers can rapidly complete project development using the Microchip MPLAB X IDE development environment, paired with the PICkit 4 programmer or the PIC18F57Q84 Curiosity Nano evaluation board. Mingjiada Electronics provides complementary technical support to assist with resolving software and hardware debugging challenges.
