8.3.2 Watchdog Timer

TPS2384 has two watchdog timers. One monitors the I2C clock and the other monitors the internal clock. When auto mode is selected and the watchdog timer has not been disabled only the internal clock is monitored. When in power management mode and the watchdog timer has not been disabled then both the I2C and internal clocks are monitored. If there is no I2C clock activity for approximately two seconds then all ports are disabled. There are three means to enable ports after a I2C clock fault and they are:

  1. Hard power reset
  2. PORB pulse
  3. Writing a software reset to the Common Control register

In both auto mode and power management mode if the internal oscillator is lost for more than 20 ms all ports are disabled.

Loss of these signals is considered catastrophic because the system loses its ability to talk to each port. Therefore the watchdog timers disabling all ports protects the system.

This function can be easily over ridden by setting the WD_DIS pin high.
