Watchdog Timer Control
Register – WDTCR
4250C–CAN–03/04
• Bits 7..5 – Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits for future use.
• Bit 4 – WDCE: Watchdog Change Enable
This bit must be set when the WDE bit is written to logic zero. Otherwise, the Watchdog
will not be disabled. Once written to one, hardware will clear this bit after four clock
cycles. Refer to the description of the WDE bit for a Watchdog disable procedure. This
bit must also be set when changing the prescaler bits. See “Timed Sequences for
Changing the Configuration of the Watchdog Timer” on page 56
• Bit 3 – WDE: Watchdog Enable
When the WDE is written to logic one, the Watchdog Timer is enabled, and if the WDE is
written to logic zero, the Watchdog Timer function is disabled. WDE can only be cleared
if the WDCE bit has logic level one. To disable an enabled Watchdog Timer, the follow-
ing procedure must be followed:
1. In the same operation, write a logic one to WDCE and WDE. A logic one must be
2. Within the next four clock cycles, write a logic 0 to WDE. This disables the
In safety level 2, it is not possible to disable the Watchdog Timer, even with the algo-
rithm described above. See “Timed Sequences for Changing the Configuration of the
Watchdog Timer” on page 56
• Bits 2..0 – WDP2, WDP1, WDP0: Watchdog Timer Prescaler 2, 1, and 0
The WDP2, WDP1, and WDP0 bits determine the Watchdog Timer prescaling when the
Watchdog Timer is enabled. The different prescaling values and their corresponding
Timeout Periods are shown in Table 24.
