Interval Timer Operation; Interval Timer Interval Time - NEC PD78052 User Manual

11.4.2 Interval timer operation

The watchdog timer operates as an interval timer which generates interrupt requests repeatedly at an interval of
the preset count value when bit 4 (WDTM4) of the watchdog timer mode register (WDTM) is set to 0.
A count clock (interval time) can be selected by the bits 0 through 2 (TCL20 through TCL22) of the timer clock
select register 2 (TCL2). By setting the bit 7 (RUN) of WDTM to 1, the watchdog timer starts operating as an interval
timer.
When the watchdog timer operated as interval timer, the interrupt mask flag (TMMK4) and priority specify flag
(TMPR4) are validated and the maskable interrupt request (INTWDT) can be generated. Among maskable interrupt
requests, the INTWDT default has the highest priority.
The interval timer continues operating in the HALT mode but it stops in STOP mode. Thus, set bit 7 (RUN) of
WDTM to 1 before the STOP mode is set, clear the interval timer and then execute the STOP instruction.
Cautions 1. Once bit 4 (WDTM4) of WDTM is set to 1 (with the watchdog timer mode selected), the interval
timer mode is not set unless RESET input is applied.
2. The interval time just after setting with WDTM may be shorter than the set time by a maximum
of 0.5 %.
3. When the subsystem clock is selected for CPU clock, watchdog timer count operation is
stopped.
