PIC18F2458/2553/4458/4553
3.0 SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE
CPU
PIC18F2458/2553/4458/4553 devices include several
features intended to maximize reliability and minimize
cost through elimination of external components.
These include:
Device ID Registers
3.1 Device ID Registers
The Device ID registers are “read-only” registers.
They identify the device type and revision to device
programmers, and can be read by firmware using
table reads.
