5.16 Watchdog timer
Watchdog timer ( WDT ) is a function that monitors the execution times of the OS and processes. If one of the
execution times exceeds its predefined time limit (timeout), WDT interprets it as a fault and restarts the unit. A
function that monitors whether the OS is properly working is called a
hardware WDT . A function that monitors
whether the system daemon and application program processes are properly working is called a software WDT .
