Watchdog Timer
Register 3: Watchdog Control (WDTCTL), offset 0x008
This register is the watchdog control register. The watchdog timer can be configured to generate a
reset signal (on second time-out) or an interrupt on time-out.
When the watchdog interrupt has been enabled, all subsequent writes to the control register are
ignored. The only mechanism that can re-enable writes is a hardware reset.

Description
Software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
Watchdog Reset Enable
0: Disabled.
1: Enable the Watchdog module reset output.
Watchdog Interrupt Enable
0: Interrupt event disabled (once this bit is set, it can only be cleared by
a hardware reset).
1: Interrupt event enabled. Once enabled, all writes are ignored.
