AT8xC51SND1C

11. Watchdog Timer

The AT8xC51SND1C implement a hardware Watchdog Timer (WDT) that automatically resets

the chip if it is allowed to time out. The WDT provides a means of recovering from routines that

do not complete successfully due to software or hardware malfunctions.

11.1

Description

The WDT consists of a 14-bit prescaler followed by a 7-bit programmable counter. As shown in

Figure 11-1, the 14-bit prescaler is fed by the WDT clock detailed in Section “Watchdog Clock

Controller”, page 60.

The Watchdog Timer Reset register (WDTRST, see Table 57) provides control access to the

WDT, while the Watchdog Timer Program register (WDTPRG, see Figure 11-4) provides time-

out period programming.

Three operations control the WDT:

•

Chip reset clears and disables the WDT.

•

Programming the time-out value to the WDTPRG register.

•

Writing a specific 2-Byte sequence to the WDTRST register clears and enables the WDT.

Watchdog Clock Controller

As shown in Figure 11-2 the WDT clock (F

WDT) is derived from either the peripheral clock (FPER)

or the oscillator clock (F

OSC) depending on the WTX2 bit in CKCON register. These clocks are

issued from the Clock Controller block as detailed in Section "Clock Controller", page 12. When

WTX2 bit is set, the WDT clock frequency is fixed and equal to the oscillator clock frequency

divided by 2. When cleared, the WDT clock frequency is equal to the oscillator clock frequency

divided by 2 in standard mode or to the oscillator clock frequency in X2 mode.
