Introduction
The PIC18F26/46/56Q83 devices that you have received conform functionally to the current device data sheet (DS40002253D), except for the anomalies described in this document.
The silicon issues discussed in the following pages are for silicon revisions with the Device and Revision IDs listed in the table below.
The errata described in this document will be addressed in future revisions of the PIC18F26/46/56Q83 silicon.
Note: This document summarizes all silicon errata issues
from all revisions of silicon, previous as well as current.
