The watchdog timer is an 8-bit timer that can generate an internal reset signal for this LSI if a
system crash prevents the CPU from writing to the timer counter, thus allowing it to overflow.
The block diagram of the watchdog timer is shown in figure 14.1.

The watchdog timer has the following registers.
WDT0110A_000020020200
Selectable from nine counter input clocks.
Eight clock sources ( /64, /128, /256, /512, /1024, /2048, /4096, and /8192) or the
internal oscillator can be selected as the timer-counter clock. When the internal oscillator is
selected, it can operate as the watchdog timer in any operating mode.
Reset signal generated on counter overflow
An overflow period of 1 to 256 times the selected clock can be set.
