Watchdog Timer Software Reset (SRWD)
The SRWD register lets software reset the available watchdog modules.
A peripheral is reset by software using a simple 2-step process:
1. Software sets a bit (or bits) in the SRWD register. While the SRWD bit is 1, the peripheral is held in
reset.
2. Software completes the reset process by clearing the SRWD bit.
There may be latency from the clearing of the SRWD bit to when the peripheral is ready for use. Software
should check the corresponding PRWD bit to verify that the Watchdog Timer module registers are ready
to be accessed.
NOTE:
Use this register to reset the watchdog modules.
SRWD is shown in
and described in
.
