Basic Connection Requirements

Getting started with the PIC18(L)F27/47K40 family of 8-bit microcontrollers requires attention to a minimal set of device pin connections before proceeding with development.

The following pins must always be connected:

These pins must also be connected if they are being used in the end application:

Additionally, the following pins may be required:

The minimum mandatory connections are shown in the figure below.
