PIC18F14K50 and USBin

[Darrel Taylor]

To replace a COM port with USB, you'll want to use the CDC protocol.

Thanks Derrel,
I red a lot of posts as indicated.
I am asking if there is a "final summary "available in which the final hardware and software configuration is described.
In my personal case I shall use the 18f4455 device and the crystal oscillator that could be 20 Mhz or 4 MHz. No bus power will be used.
What will be the configuration set up ? ( include, define ... etc )
What is the program to callup every cycle in my PBP program to comunicate and to receive USB data?
I am sorry but reading all the above posts I still not have a clear understanding.
Thanks for any help.
Best regards,
Ambrogio

I have to note that that thread doesn't write anything useful about clock settings. The line "DEFINE OSC 48" looks very naively. :-) It is not enough.

By the way I managed partly to solve my problem. I found that if I set the system clock as high as 48 MHz then the CPU functions unstable. I got some other problems with another type of operations besides the USB interface.

Now my setting are the following:

• clock frequency- 12 Mhz;
• 4xPLL -enabled;
• CPUDIV=10;

That is the system clock is 16 MHz and USB clock is 48 MHz.
But I had no time to check USB operations at these conditions. I'll check and will report lately.

Maybe it would help if you read the whole thread, or at least to post #14

And the data sheet is VERY helpful too.

Of course, it is very helpful!

Still not checked USB with new clock settings... It might happen tonight.
