Abstract
This paper addresses the possibility of making a communication between a PC and a PIC18F4550 microcontroller through the USB port type, in order to achieve industrial automation. In order to prove the communication, it will be made a software in Visual Basic v.6 environment that will exchange information with the PIC18F4550 microcontroller.
