Watchdog Timer 41
The register unlocking sequence is necessary whenever writ-
ing to the Preload registers. Instructions for writing a value into
preload value 1 & 2 registers are as follows:
1. Write 80H to offset BAR + 0CH.
2. Write 86H to offset BAR + 0CH.
3. Write desired value to preload register. (BAR + 00H or
BAR + 04H)
General Interrupt Status Register
This register is at Base + 08H. Bit 0 is set when the first stage
of down-counter reaches zero.
Bit 0 = 0 – No Interrupt
Bit 1 = 1 – Interrupt Active
NOTE: This bit is not set in free running mode.
Reload Register
This register is at Base + 0CH. Write 1 to bit 8 will reload the
down-counter’s value. Following is the procedure of how to
prevent a timeout.
1. Write 80H to offset BAR + 0CH
2. Write 86H to offset BAR + 0CH
3. Write a ‘1’ to RELOAD[8] of the reload register
Offset 60 – 61H: WDT Configuration Register
Bit 5 indicates whether or not the WDT will toggle the
WDT_TOUT# pin when WDT times out. (0 = Enabled, 1 = Dis-
abled)
Bit 2 provides two options for prescaling the main down-
counter. (0 = 1ms – 10min, 1 = 1us – 1sec)
Bit [1:0] allows the user to choose the type of interrupt desired
when the WDT reached the end of the first stage without being
reset. (00 = IRQ, 01 = reserved, 10 = SMI, 11 = Disabled)
NOTE: The WDT does not currently support SMI. IRQ uses APIC
1, INT 10 and it is active low, level triggered.
