16.4 Watchdog Timer in Timer mode
shows the Watchdog Timer in Timer Mode. In this mode, any changes to
WDCON are written to the shadow register after one watchdog clock cycle. A watchdog
underflow will set the WDTOF bit. If IEN0.6 is set, the watchdog underflow is enabled to
cause an interrupt. WDTOF is cleared by writing a logic 0 to this bit in software. When an
underflow occurs, the contents of WDL is reloaded into the down counter and the
watchdog timer immediately begins to count down again.
A feed is necessary to cause WDL to be loaded into the down counter before an underflow
occurs. Incorrect feeds are ignored in this mode.
