PIC18F1220/1320
The PIC18F1220/1320 Rev. D0 parts you have
received conform functionally to the Device Data Sheet
(DS39605F), except for the anomalies described
below.
All of the issues listed here will be addressed in future
revisions of the PIC18F1220/1320 silicon.
The following silicon errata apply only to
PIC18F1220/1320 devices with these Device/
Revision IDs:
1. Module: Core (DAW Instruction)
The DAW instruction may improperly clear the
Carry bit (STATUS<0>) when executed.
Work around
Test the Carry bit state before executing the DAW
instruction. If the Carry bit is set, increment the
next higher byte to be added, using an instruction
such as INCFSZ (this instruction does not affect
any Status flags and will not overflow a BCD nib-
ble). After the DAW instruction has been executed,
process the Carry bit normally (see Example 1).
EXAMPLE 1: PROCESSING THE CARRY
BIT DURING BCD ADDITIONS
Date Codes that pertain to this issue:
All engineering and production devices.
2. Module: EUSART
The auto-baud measurement may not determine
the correct baud rate if the ABDEN bit is set while
the RB4/RX pin is low.
Work around
If the wake-up function is being used (WUE is set),
wait for the RB4/RX pin to go high following a
Break signal before setting the ABDEN bit.
If the wake-up function is not being used, ensure
that RB4/RX is Idle (high between bytes) before
setting the ABDEN bit.
Date Codes that pertain to this issue:
All engineering and production devices.
3. Module: Reset
It has been observed that in certain Reset condi-
tions, including power-up, the first GOTO instruction
at address 0x0000 may not be executed. This
occurrence is rare and affects very few applications.
To determine if your system is affected, test a
statistically significant number of applications across
the operating temperature, voltage and frequency
ranges of the application. Affected systems will
repeatably fail normal testing. Systems not affected
will continue to not be affected over time.
Work around
Insert a NOP instruction at address 0x0000.
Date Codes that pertain to this issue:
All engineering and production devices.
Part Number Device ID Revision ID
PIC18F1220 0000 0111 111 0 0111
PIC18F1320 0000 0111 110 0 0111
The Device IDs (DEVID1 and DEVID2) are located at
addresses 3FFFFEh:3FFFFFh in the device’s
configuration space. They are shown in hexadecimal
in the format “DEVID2 DEVID1”.
MOVLW 0x80 ; .80 (BCD)

BTFSC STATUS, C ; test C
INCFSZ byte2 ; inc next higher LSB

BTFSC STATUS, C ; test C
INCFSZ byte2 ; inc next higher LSB
This is repeated for each DAW instruction.
