To reload the timer counter and reset the prescaler before reaching overflow, a reload command is executed by accessing the WTGR using a specific reload sequence.
The specific reload sequence is performed whenever the written value on the WTGR differs from its previous value. In this case, reload is executed in the same way as an overflow autoreload, but without the generation of a reset pulse.
The timer counter is loaded with the value of the watchdog timer load register (the WLDR[31:0] TIMER_LOAD bit field), and the prescaler is reset.
