Watchdog Fail Counter and Status

The watchdog includes a watchdog fail counter WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] that increments because of bad events or decrements because of good events. Furthermore, the watchdog includes two configurable thresholds:

  1. Fail-threshold (configurable through bits WD_FAIL_TH[2:0])
  2. Reset-threshold (configurable through bits WD_RST_TH[2:0])

When the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] counter value is less than or equal to the configured Watchdog-Fail threshold (WD_FAIL_TH[2:0]) and bit  =1, the MCU can set the ENABLE_DRV bit when no other error-flags are set.

When the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] counter value is greater than the configured Watchdog-Fail threshold (WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] > WD_FAIL_TH[2:0]), the device clears the ENABLE_DRV bit, sets the error-flag  , and pulls the nINT pin low.

When the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] counter value is greater than the configured Watchdog-Fail plus Watchdog-Reset threshold (WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] > (WD_FAIL_TH[2:0] + WD_RST_TH[2:0])) and the watchdog-reset function is enabled (configuration bit WD_RST_EN=1), the device generates a WD_ERROR trigger in the state machine (see PFSM Trigger Selections) and sets the error-flag  , and pulls the nINT pin low.

The device clears the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] each time the watchdog enters the Long Window. The status bits   and   are latched until the MCU writes a ‘1’ to these bits.

Overview of Watchdog Fail Counter Value Ranges and Corresponding Device Status gives an overview of the Watchdog Fail Counter value ranges and the corresponding device status.

Table 7-4 Overview of Watchdog Fail Counter Value Ranges and Corresponding Device Status
Watchdog Fail Counter value
WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0]
Device Status
WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] ≤ WD_FAIL_TH[2:0] MCU can set the ENABLE_DRV bit if  =1 and no other error-flags are set
WD_FAIL_TH[2:0] < WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] ≤ (WD_FAIL_TH[2:0] + WD_RST_TH[2:0])The device clears the ENABLE_DRV bit, sets error-flag   and pulls the nINT pin low
WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] > (WD_FAIL_TH[2:0] + WD_RST_TH[2:0])If configuration bit WD_RST_EN=1, device generates WD_ERROR trigger in the state machine and reacts as defined in the PFSM, sets the error-flag  , and pulls the nINT pin low. See Summary of Interrupt Signals for the interrupt handling of WD_RTS.

The WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] counter responds as follows:

  • When the Watchdog is in the Long-Window, the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] is cleared to 4’b0000
  • A good event decrements the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] by one before the start of the next Window-1
  • A bad event increments the WD_FAIL_CNT[3:0] by one before the start of the next Window-1

Refer to Watchdog Trigger Mode and Watchdog Q&A Related Definitions respectively for definitions of good events and bad events.
