Watchdog Timer

The watchdog timer can be used to detect an out-

of-control microprocessor. The user programs the

watchdog timer by setting the desired amount of

time-out into the Watchdog Register, address 09h.

Bits BMB4-BMB0 store a binary multiplier and the

three bits RB2-RB0 select the resolution where:

000=1/16 second (16Hz);

001=1/4 second (4Hz);

010=1 second (1Hz);

011=4 seconds (1/4Hz); and

100 = 1 minute (1/60Hz).

Note: Invalid combinations (101, 110, and 111) will

NOT enable a watchdog time-out. Setting the

BMB4-BMB0 = 0 with any combination of RB2-

RB0, other than 000, will result in an immediate

watchdog time-out.

The amount of time-out is then determined to be

the multiplication of the five-bit multiplier value with

the resolution. (For example: writing 00001110 in

the Watchdog Register = 3*1 or 3 seconds). If the

processor does not reset the timer within the spec-

ified period, the M41T6x sets the WDF (Watchdog

Flag) and generates an interrupt on the IRQ pin

(M41T62), or a watchdog output pulse (M41T63

and M41T65 only) on the WDO pin. The watchdog

timer can only be reset by having the microproces-

sor perform a WRITE of the Watchdog Register.

The time-out period then starts over.

Should the watchdog timer time-out, any value

may be written to the Watchdog Register in order

to clear the IRQ pin. A value of 00h will disable the

watchdog function until it is again programmed to

a new value. A READ of the Flags Register will re-

set the Watchdog Flag (Bit D7; Register 0Fh). The

watchdog function is automatically disabled upon

power-up, and the Watchdog Register is cleared.

Note: A WRITE to any clock register will restart

the watchdog timer.

Watchdog Output (WDO - M41T63/65 only)

If the processor does not reset the watchdog timer

within the specified period, the Watchdog Output

(WDO)

will

pulse

low

for

trec (see Table

17., page 27). This output may be connected to

the Reset input of the processor in order to gener-

ate a processor reset. After a watchdog time-out

occurs, the timer will remain disabled until such

time as a new countdown value is written into the

watchdog register.

Note: The crystal oscillator must be running for the

WDO pulse to be available.

The WDO output is an N-channel, open drain out-

put driver (with

IOL as specified in Table

14., page 26).
