WATCHDOG TIMER

12. WATCHDOG TIMER
The watchdog timer subsystem protects the system from incorrect code execution by causing a system reset when it underflows
as a result of a failure of software to feed the timer prior to the timer reaching its terminal count. The watchdog timer can only be
reset by a power-on reset.

WATCHDOG FUNCTION
The user has the ability using the WDCON and UCFG1 registers to control the run /stop condition of the WDT, the clock source
for the WDT, the prescaler value, and whether the WDT is enabled to reset the device on underflow. In addition, there is a safety
mechanism which forces the WDT to be enabled by values programmed into UCFG1 either through IAP or a commercial
programmer.

mechanism which forces the WDT to be enabled by values programmed into UCFG1 either through IAP or a commercial
programmer.
The WDTE bit (UCFG1.7), if set, enables the WDT to reset the device on underflow. Following reset, the WDT will be running
regardless of the state of the WDTE bit.
regardless of the state of the WDTE bit.
The WDRUN bit (WDCON.2) can be set to start the WDT and cleared to stop the WDT. Following reset this bit will be set and
the WDT will be running. All writes to WDCON need to be followed by a feed sequence (see section "Feed Sequence" on page
80). Additional bits in WDCON allow the user to select the clocksource for the WDT and the prescaler.

When the timer is not enabled to reset the device on underflow, the WDT can be used in "timer mode" and be enabled to produce
an interrupt (IEN0.6) if desired.

Table 12-1: .Watchdog timer configuration
Figure 12-3 shows the watchdog timer in watchdog mode. It consists of a programmable 13-bit prescaler, and an 8-bit down
counter. The down counter is clocked (decremented) by a tap taken from the prescaler. The clock source for the prescaler is
either PCLK or the watchdog oscillator selected by the WDCLK bit in the WDCON register. (Note that switching of the clock
sources will not take effect immediately - see section "Watchdog Clock Source" on page 84).

The watchdog asserts the watchdog reset when the watchdog count underflows and the watchdog reset is enabled. When the
watchdog reset is enabled, writing to WDL or WDCON must be followed by a feed sequence for the new values to take effect.

If a watchdog reset occurs, the internal reset is active for at least one watchdog clock cycle (PCLK or the watchdog oscillator
clock). If CCLK is still running, code execution will begin immediately after the reset cycle. If the processor was in Power down
mode, the watchdog reset will start the oscillator and code execution will resume after the oscillator is stable.

The watchdog reset is enabled, along with additional safety features:
1. WDCLK is forced to 1 (using watchdog oscillator)
2. WDCON and WDL register can only be written once
3. WDRUN is forced to 1and cannot be cleared by software.
