Watch-Dog Timer

Z8 Encore! XP® 4K Series

Product Specification

Watch-Dog Timer Refresh

When first enabled, the Watch-Dog Timer is loaded with the value in the Watch-Dog

Timer Reload registers. The Watch-Dog Timer counts down to 000000H unless a WDT

instruction is executed by the eZ8 CPU. Execution of the WDT instruction causes the

downcounter to be reloaded with the WDT Reload value stored in the Watch-Dog Timer

Reload registers. Counting resumes following the reload operation.

When the Z8 Encore! XP® 4K Series devices are operating in DEBUG Mode (using the

on-chip debugger), the Watch-Dog Timer is continuously refreshed to prevent any Watch-

Dog Timer time-outs.

Watch-Dog Timer Time-Out Response

The Watch-Dog Timer times out when the counter reaches 000000H. A time-out of the

Watch-Dog Timer generates either an interrupt or a system reset. The WDT_RES Flash

Option Bit determines the time-out response of the Watch-Dog Timer. Refer to the chapter

Flash Option Bits on page 148 for information regarding programming of the WDT_RES

Flash Option Bit.

WDT Interrupt in Normal Operation

If configured to generate an interrupt when a time-out occurs, the Watch-Dog Timer issues

an interrupt request to the interrupt controller and sets the WDT status bit in the Reset Sta-

tus (RSTSTAT) register (see page 27). If interrupts are enabled, the eZ8 CPU responds to

the interrupt request by fetching the Watch-Dog Timer interrupt vector and executing code

from the vector address. After time-out and interrupt generation, the Watch-Dog Timer

counter rolls over to its maximum value of FFFFFH and continues counting. The Watch-

Dog Timer counter is not automatically returned to its Reload Value.

The Reset Status (RSTSTAT) Register must be read before clearing the WDT interrupt.

This read clears the WDT timeout flag and prevents further WDT interrupts from immedi-

ately occurring.
