ADSP-BF537 Blackfin Processor Hardware Reference
Especially in slave boot configurations, a processor reset cannot automati-
cally force the part to be rebooted. In this case, the processor may reset
without booting again and may negotiate with the host device by the time
program execution starts. Alternatively, a watchdog event can cause an
NMI event. The NMI service routine may request the host device to reset
and/or reboot the Blackfin processor.
Often, the watchdog timer is also programmed to let the processor wake
up from sleep mode after a programmable period of time.
L
For easier debugging, the watchdog timer does not decrement
(even if enabled) when the processor is in emulation mode.
