Figure 24-1. WDOG operation
The preceding figure shows the operation of the watchdog. The values for N and K are:
• N = 256
• K = 20
The watchdog is a fail safe mechanism that brings the system into a known initial state in
case of its failure due to CPU clock stopping or a run-away condition in code execution.
In its simplest form, the watchdog timer runs continuously off a clock source and expects
