Architectural Overview
Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer represents one of the fail-safe mechanisms which have been
implemented to prevent the controller from malfunctioning for longer periods of time.
The Watchdog Timer is always enabled after a reset of the chip, and can only be
disabled in the time interval until the EINIT (end of initialization) instruction has been
executed. Thus, the chip’s start-up procedure is always monitored. The software has to
be designed to service the Watchdog Timer before it overflows. If, due to hardware or
software related failures, the software fails to do so, the Watchdog Timer overflows and
generates an internal hardware reset and pulls the RSTOUT pin low in order to allow
external hardware components to reset.
The Watchdog Timer is a 16-bit timer, clocked with the CPU clock divided either by 2 or
by 128. The high byte of the Watchdog Timer register can be set to a prespecified reload
value (stored in WDTREL) in order to allow further variation of the monitored time
interval. Each time it is serviced by the application software, the high byte of the
Watchdog Timer is reloaded.
