PCF2129A

Integrated RTC, TCXO and quartz crystal

8.10 Timer functions

The PCF2129A has a watchdog timer function. The timer can be selected by using the

control bit WD_CD in the register Watchdg_tim_ctl.

The watchdog timer has four selectable source clocks. It can be used to detect a

microprocessor with interrupt and reset capability which is out of control (see

Section 8.10.3)

To control the timer function and timer output, the registers Control_2, Watchdg_tim_ctl,

and Watchdg_tim_val are used.

8.10.1 Register Watchdg_tim_ctl

[1]

Default value.

[2]

When writing to the register this bit has always to be set logic 0.
