4.4 Watchdog program example
A watchdog timer (abbreviated as WDT) is a hardware device which triggers an action,
e.g. rebooting the system, if the system does not reset the timer within a specific period
of time. The WDT program example provides developers with functions such as starting
the timer, resetting the timer, and setting the timeout value if the hardware requires
customized timeout values.
Please contact our service personnel for program example source code and packaging
EXE executable file.
4.4.1 WDT Programming Routines
The WDT related 3 registers are located in
“
W83627DHG
”
-
“Logic Device 8”,
generally we only use the former two registers, refer to bellow:
Logical Device 8
CR_F5
(0xF5)
Default 0x00
bit [7:5]: Reserved bit, keep it as default value.
bit [4]: 1
:
ENABLE 0
:
DISABLE
bit3: WDT count-down mode selection ——
0: To count-down in seconds;
1: To count-down in minutes;
bit [2:0]: Reserved bit, keep it as default value.
CR_F6
(0xF6)
Default 0x00
Bit [7:0] 0x00: Stop countdown;
0x01: time-out value 1min./sec.;
0x02: time-out value 2min./sec.;
0x03: time-out value 3min./sec.;
......
0xFF: time-out value 255min./sec.;
This register is to set WDT time-out value, write in a nonzero value,
WDT will start to count down from this value. If both of the bit7 and
bit6 are set as “1”, then the interrupt from mouse or keyboard
would result to re-countdown from this nonzero value.
The value in reading register is the present count down value, not
