When selecting a new clock source, the system clock oscillator failure detection circuitry
and the Watchdog Timer oscillator failure circuitry must be disabled. If SOFEN and
WOFEN are not disabled prior to a clock switch-over, it is possible to generate an inter-
rupt for a failure of either oscillator. The Failure detection circuitry can be enabled any-
time after a successful write of OSCSEL in the OSCCTL Register.
The internal precision oscillator is enabled by default. If the user code changes to a differ-
ent oscillator, it may be appropriate to disable the IPO for power savings. Disabling the
IPO does not occur automatically.
Clock Failure Detection and Recovery
Should an oscillator or timer fail, there are methods of recovery, as this section describes.
System Clock Oscillator Failure
The Z8F04xA family devices can generate nonmaskable interrupt-like events when the
primary oscillator fails. To maintain system function in this situation, the clock failure
recovery circuitry automatically forces the Watchdog Timer oscillator to drive the system
clock. The Watchdog Timer oscillator must be enabled to allow the recovery. Although
this oscillator runs at a much slower speed than the original system clock, the CPU contin-
ues to operate, allowing execution of a clock failure vector and software routines that
either remedy the oscillator failure or issue a failure alert. This automatic switch-over is
not available if the Watchdog Timer is selected as the system clock oscillator. It is also
unavailable if the Watchdog Timer oscillator is disabled, though it is not necessary to
enable the Watchdog Timer reset function (see the
Watchdog Timer
chapter on page 93).
The primary oscillator failure detection circuitry asserts if the system clock frequency
drops below 1 kHz ±50%. If an external signal is selected as the system oscillator, it is pos-
sible that a very slow but nonfailing clock can generate a failure condition. Under these
conditions, do not enable the clock failure circuitry (SOFEN must be deasserted in the
OSCCTL Register).
Watchdog Timer Failure
In the event of a Watchdog Timer oscillator failure, a similar nonmaskable interrupt-like
event is issued. This event does not trigger an attendant clock switch-over, but alerts the
CPU of the failure. After a Watchdog Timer failure, it is no longer possible to detect a pri-
mary oscillator failure. The failure detection circuitry does not function if the Watchdog
Timer is used as the system clock oscillator or if the Watchdog Timer oscillator has been
disabled. For either of these cases, it is necessary to disable the detection circuitry by deas-
serting the WDFEN bit of the OSCCTL Register.
The Watchdog Timer oscillator failure detection circuit counts system clocks while look-
ing for a Watchdog Timer clock. The logic counts 8004 system clock cycles before deter-
mining that a failure has occurred. The system clock rate determines the speed at which
