Reset Cause
The cause of an AON reset is latched in the Reset Unit and can be read from the
pmucause
reg-
ister in the PMU, as described in Chapter 14.
12.6
Watchdog Timer (WDT)
The watchdog timer can be used to provide a watchdog reset function, or a periodic timer inter-
rupt. The watchdog is described in detail in Chapter 13.
12.7
Real-Time Clock (RTC)
The real-time clock maintains time for the system and can also be used to generate interrupts
for timed wakeup from sleep-mode or timer interrupts during normal operation. The Real-Time
Clock is described in detail in Chapter 15.
12.8
Backup Registers
The backup registers provide a place to store critical data during sleep. The FE310-G000 has
16 32-bit backup registers.
12.9
Power-Management Unit (PMU)
The power-management unit (PMU) sequences the system power supplies and reset signals
when transitioning into and out of sleep mode. The PMU also monitors AON signals for wakeup
conditions. The PMU is described in detail in Chapter 14.
