WATCHDOG TIMER UNIT<br />

Figure 12-2 shows the circuit necessary to reset the processor when a WDT timeout occurs. The<br />

power-on reset signal and the WDTOUT signals are ANDed together to produce the RESIN signal<br />

for the processor.<br />

Figure 12-2. Watchdog Timer Reset Circuit<br />

The circuit in Figure 12-3(a) is used to interrupt the processor when a WDT timeout occurs. Since<br />

WDTOUT is normally high, the Interrupt Control Unit must be programmed for edge sensitivity<br />

to prevent continuous interrupts from occurring.<br />
