Registers Reference
Current Count (WDTCURCNT)
The
WDTCURCNT
register contains the current count value of the watchdog
timer. Reads to
WDTCURCNT
return the current count value. For added
safety, this register can only be updated when WDT configuration space is
unlocked by programming the command in the
WDTUNLOCK
register. Values
cannot be stored directly in
WDTCURCNT
, but are instead copied from
WDTCNT
.
Enabling the watchdog timer does not automatically reload
WDTCURCNT
from
WDTCNT
. The
WDTCURCNT
register is a 32-bit unsigned system mem-
ory-mapped register that must be accessed with 32-bit reads and writes.
Trip Counter (WDTTRIP)
The WDT contains a software programmable register
WDTTRIP
that sets
the number of times that the WDT can expire before the
WDTRSTO
pin is
continually asserted until the next time hardware reset is applied. This reg-
ister is unaffected by WDT generated reset. This register can only be
Table A-72. WDTSTATUS Register Bit Descriptions (RO)
Bit
Name
Description
0 (W1C)
WDRO
Watchdog Expired.
Indicates that DSP core attempted to write
to WDT configuration space without an unlock “command”. Bit
is set when the above exception occurs. Software can determine
whether the watchdog has expired by interrogating this bit. This
is a sticky bit that is set whenever the watchdog timer count
reaches 0.
1 (W1C)
WDERR
Watchdog Error.
Indicates that watchdog timer has expired. Bit
is set when counter expires. Attempts by the core to write to the
WDT configuration space without an unlock command, causes
the WDT to expire and this condition is captured in the watch-
dog exception field. This is a sticky bit that is set whenever the
above exception occurs.
