External Watchdog Monitor (EWM)
23.1 Introduction
NOTE
For the chip-specific implementation details of this module's
instances, see the chip configuration information.
For safety, a redundant watchdog system, External Watchdog Monitor (EWM), is
designed to monitor external circuits, as well as the MCU software flow. This provides a
back-up mechanism to the internal watchdog that resets the MCU's CPU and peripherals.
The watchdog is generally used to monitor the flow and execution of embedded software
within an MCU. The watchdog consists of a counter that if allowed to overflow, forces an
internal reset (asynchronous) to all on-chip peripherals and optionally assert the RESET
pin to reset external devices/circuits. The overflow of the watchdog counter must not
occur if the software code works well and services the watchdog to re-start the actual
counter.
The EWM differs from the internal watchdog in that it does not reset the MCU's CPU
and peripherals. The EWM provides an independent EWM_out signal that when asserted
resets or places an external circuit into a safe mode. The EWM_out signal is asserted
upon the EWM counter time-out. An optional external input EWM_in is provided to
allow additional control of the assertion of EWM_out signal.
23.1.1 Features
Features of EWM module include:
• Independent LPO_CLK clock source
• Programmable time-out period specified in terms of number of EWM LPO_CLK
clock cycles.
