The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a system function for monitoring correct program operation, mak-
ing it possible to recover from error situations, for instance run-away code. The WDT is a timer,
configured to a predefined timeout period and is constantly running when enabled. If the WDT is
not reset within the timeout period, it will issue a system reset. The WDT is reset by executing
the WDR (Watchdog Timer Reset) instruction from the application code.
The WDT also has a window mode that enables the user to define a time slot where WDT must
be reset within. If the WDT is reset too early or too late, a system reset will be issued.
The WDT will run in all power modes if enabled. It runs from a CPU independent clock source,
and will continue to operate to issue a system reset even if the main clocks fail.
The Configuration Change Protection mechanism ensures that the WDT settings cannot be
changed by accident. In addition the settings can be locked by a fuse.
In normal mode operation a single timeout period is set for the WDT. If the WDT is not reset from
the application code before the timeout occurs the WDT will issue a system reset. There are 11
possible WDT timeout (TO
any time during the period. After each reset, a new timeout period is started. The default timeout
period is controlled by fuses. Normal mode operation is illustrated in
Figure 11-1. Normal mode operation.
