1.3.4 CPU Watchdog Block
The watchdog module generates an output pulse, 512 oscillator-clocks (OSCCLK) wide whenever the 8-bit
watchdog up counter has reached its maximum value. To prevent this, the user can either disable the counter
or the software must periodically write a 0x55 + 0xAA sequence into the watchdog key register which resets the
watchdog counter.
shows the various functional blocks within the watchdog module.
A.
The WDRST and XRS signals are driven low for 512 OSCCLK cycles when a watchdog reset occurs. Likewise, if the watchdog interrupt
is enabled, the WDINT signal will be driven low for 512 OSCCLK cycles when an interrupt occurs.
