WATCHDOG TIMER (Cont’d)

Table 15. Watchdog Timing (fCPU = 8 MHz)

Notes: Following a reset, the watchdog is disa-

bled. Once activated it cannot be disabled, except

by a reset.

The T6 bit can be used to generate a software re-

set (the WDGA bit is set and the T6 bit is cleared).

11.1.4 Software Watchdog Option

If Software Watchdog is selected by option byte,

the watchdog is disabled following a reset. Once

activated it cannot be disabled, except by a reset.

The T6 bit can be used to generate a software re-

set (the WDGA bit is set and the T6 bit is cleared).

11.1.5 Hardware Watchdog Option

If Hardware Watchdog is selected by option byte,

the watchdog is always active and the WDGA bit in

the CR is not used.

11.1.6 Low Power Modes

WAIT Instruction

No effect on Watchdog.

HALT Instruction

If the Watchdog reset on HALT option is selected

by option byte, a HALT instruction causes an im-

mediate reset generation if the Watchdog is acti-

vated (WDGA bit is set).

11.1.6.1 Using Halt Mode with the WDG (option)

If the Watchdog reset on HALT option is not se-

lected by option byte, the Halt mode can be used

when the watchdog is enabled.

In this case, the HALT instruction stops the oscilla-

tor. When the oscillator is stopped, the WDG stops

counting and is no longer able to generate a reset

until the microcontroller receives an external inter-

rupt or a reset.

If an external interrupt is received, the WDG re-

starts counting after 4096 CPU clocks. If a reset is

generated, the WDG is disabled (reset state).

Recommendations

– Make sure that an external event is available to

wake up the microcontroller from Halt mode.

– Before executing the HALT instruction, refresh

the WDG counter, to avoid an unexpected WDG

reset immediately after waking up the microcon-

troller.

– When using an external interrupt to wake up the

microcontroller, reinitialize the corresponding I/O

as “Input Pull-up with Interrupt” before executing

the HALT instruction. The main reason for this is

that the I/O may be wrongly configured due to ex-

ternal interference or by an unforeseen logical

condition.

– For the same reason, reinitialize the level sensi-

tiveness of each external interrupt as a precau-

tionary measure.

– The opcode for the HALT instruction is 0x8E. To

avoid an unexpected HALT instruction due to a

program counter failure, it is advised to clear all

occurrences of the data value 0x8E from memo-

ry. For example, avoid defining a constant in

ROM with the value 0x8E.

– As the HALT instruction clears the I bit in the CC

to clear all pending interrupt bits before execut-

ing the HALT instruction. This avoids entering

other peripheral interrupt routines after executing

the external interrupt routine corresponding to

the wake-up event (reset or external interrupt).
