PIC18F4550

The PIC is the heart of the board. It’s a programmable microcontroller with 32Kbytes of flash program memory and 2kbytes of general purpose SRAM. It has 13 A/D inputs and 18 general purpose I/O ports. On the CUI board, one of the general purpose I/O pins is dedicated to the “program” button to enter bootloading mode. You can use the remaining ports for anything you wish.
