Watchdog Timer (WDT)

For PIC24HJXXXGPX06A/X08A/X10A devices, the

WDT is driven by the LPRC oscillator. When the WDT

is enabled, the clock source is also enabled.

The nominal WDT clock source from LPRC is 32 kHz.

This feeds a prescaler than can be configured for either

5-bit (divide-by-32) or 7-bit (divide-by-128) operation.

The prescaler is set by the WDTPRE Configuration bit.

With a 32 kHz input, the prescaler yields a nominal

WDT time-out period (TWDT) of 1 ms in 5-bit mode, or

4 ms in 7-bit mode.

A variable postscaler divides down the WDT prescaler

output and allows for a wide range of time-out periods.

The postscaler is controlled by the WDTPOST<3:0>

Configuration bits (FWDT<3:0>) which allow the selec-

tion of a total of 16 settings, from 1:1 to 1:32,768. Using

the prescaler and postscaler, time-out periods ranging

from 1 ms to 131 seconds can be achieved.

The WDT, prescaler and postscaler are reset:

• On any device Reset

• On the completion of a clock switch, whether

invoked by software (i.e., setting the OSWEN bit

after changing the NOSC bits) or by hardware

(i.e., Fail-Safe Clock Monitor)

• When a PWRSAV instruction is executed

(i.e., Sleep or Idle mode is entered)

• When the device exits Sleep or Idle mode to

resume normal operation

•By a CLRWDT instruction during normal execution

If the WDT is enabled, it will continue to run during

Sleep or Idle modes. When the WDT time-out occurs,

the device will wake the device and code execution will

continue from where the PWRSAV instruction was exe-

cuted. The corresponding SLEEP or IDLE bits

(RCON<3,2>) will need to be cleared in software after

the device wakes up.

The WDT flag bit, WDTO (RCON<4>), is not automatically

cleared following a WDT time-out. To detect subsequent

WDT events, the flag must be cleared in software.

The WDT is enabled or disabled by the FWDTEN

Configuration bit in the FWDT Configuration register.

When the FWDTEN Configuration bit is set, the WDT is

always enabled.

The WDT can be optionally controlled in software when

the FWDTEN Configuration bit has been programmed

to ‘0’. The WDT is enabled in software by setting the

SWDTEN control bit (RCON<5>). The SWDTEN con-

trol bit is cleared on any device Reset. The software

WDT option allows the user to enable the WDT for crit-

ical code segments and disable the WDT during

non-critical segments for maximum power savings.

Note:

The CLRWDT and PWRSAV instructions

clear the prescaler and postscaler counts

when executed.

Note:

If the WINDIS bit (FWDT<6>) is cleared,

the CLRWDT instruction should be executed

by the application software only during the

last 1/4 of the WDT period. This CLRWDT

window can be determined by using a timer.

If a CLRWDT instruction is executed before

this window, a WDT Reset occurs.
