Figure 18 shows maximum transient duration vs. reset-
comparator overdrive, for which reset pulses are not
generated. The graph was produced using negative-
going V
the reset threshold by the magnitude indicated (reset
comparator overdrive). The graph shows the maximum
pulse width a negative-going V
have without causing a reset pulse to be issued. As
the amplitude of the transient increases (i.e., goes far-
ther below the reset threshold), the maximum allowable
pulse width decreases. Typically, a V
goes 40mV below the reset threshold and lasts for 10µs
or less does not cause a reset pulse to be issued.
A 0.1µF bypass capacitor mounted close to the V
pin provides additional transient immunity.

There is a way to help the watchdog timer monitor soft-
ware execution more closely, which involves setting
and resetting the watchdog input at different points in
the program rather than pulsing the watchdog input
high-low-high or low-high-low. This technique avoids a
stuck loop, in which the watchdog timer would continue
to be reset within the loop, keeping the watchdog from
timing out. Figure 19 shows an example of a flow dia-
gram where the I/O driving the watchdog input is set
high at the beginning of the program, set low at the
beginning of every subroutine or loop, then set high
again when the program returns to the beginning. If the
program should hang in any subroutine, the problem
would quickly be corrected, since the I/O is continually
set low and the watchdog timer is allowed to time out,
causing a reset or interrupt to be issued.
