Watchdog Reset
MCU Control and
Status Register –
MCUCSR
2486Z–AVR–02/11
When the Watchdog times out, it will generate a short reset pulse of 1 CK cycle duration. On the
falling edge of this pulse, the delay timer starts counting the time-out period t

Figure 19. Watchdog Reset During Operation
The MCU Control and Status Register provides information on which reset source caused an
MCU Reset.
• Bit 7..4 – Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits in the ATmega8 and always read as zero.
• Bit 3 – WDRF: Watchdog Reset Flag
This bit is set if a Watchdog Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a
logic zero to the flag.
• Bit 2 – BORF: Brown-out Reset Flag
This bit is set if a Brown-out Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a
logic zero to the flag.
• Bit 1 – EXTRF: External Reset Flag
This bit is set if an External Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a
logic zero to the flag.
• Bit 0 – PORF: Power-on Reset Flag
This bit is set if a Power-on Reset occurs. The bit is reset only by writing a logic zero to the flag.
To make use of the Reset Flags to identify a reset condition, the user should read and then reset
the MCUCSR as early as possible in the program. If the register is cleared before another reset
occurs, the source of the reset can be found by examining the Reset Flags.
