Timer2
Timer2 (T2) is clocked by CLK2 divided by 128. The overflow pulse from T2 can cause an interrupt request which in
turn will cause a T2 Wake-up from power-down, if register E8.Bit6=1. (see “Power and Wakeup Control” section).
Note that the Timer2 “irq” bit (register FE.Bit1) must be cleared prior to powering down to allow the wakeup
interrupt request to occur. T2 can also generate a standard interrupt request by setting register FD.Bit1=1. (see
“Interrupts” section)

Multi-Task Timer
The multi-tasking (MT) timer is intended to count a fixed interval of 858.1 microseconds. This provides a
“heartbeat” for multi-tasking in the FluentChip™ technology library. Other applications may find this useful for
similar purposes. This interval is obtained by dividing the CLK1 rate, when running at 14.32 MHz, by a fixed factor
of 12288. There is no configurability to the MT timer. One bit in the Clock Extension Register (D6.Bit6) enable this
timer’s clock. The MT timer overflow can generate an interrupt by setting register FD.Bit7=1. (see “Interrupts”
section)
Watchdog Timer
Due to static electricity, voltage glitches, or other environmental conditions (or program bugs!), a software program
can begin to operate incorrectly. The watchdog timer provides protection from such errant operation.
The Watchdog Timer (WDT) unit comprises two control bits in the System Control Register (D5), a special
instruction, two status bits, and a 17-bit counter. The counter, driven by OSC2, produces a toggle rate of
approximately 4 seconds at the 17^th bit. A 2-bit decoded mux in the “sysCtl” register (register D5) allows selecting
the WDT timeout pulse from bit 9, 13, 15, or 17 of the counter. This selection sets the timeout in the range of
approximately 15.6 msec to 4 seconds. The accuracy of these times will depend on whether the OSC2 source is a
32 KHz crystal or the on-chip RC.
The WDT is enabled by register FB.Bit4=1. This bit can only be set by execution of the “WDC” instruction. This bit
is cleared by reset, so the WDT is disabled by reset. The bit is also cleared when E8.Bit7=1 (pdn), so the WDT is
disabled in either SLEEP or IDLE mode. It is not automatically re-enabled on Wakeup. Program control cannot
write to register FB.Bit4 to enable or disable the WDT. That is, FB.Bit4 is a read-only bit for normal register access
instructions. Since the WDT needs OSC2 for its operation, once the WDC instruction has been executed and
register FB.Bit4=1 to enable the WDT, OSC2 cannot be disabled by programming register E8.Bit1 =0 unless the
“pdn” bit (register E8.Bit7) is also set simultaneously. This allows disabling the WDT only when entering a power
down mode and is intended to reduce the probability of accidental software disabling of the WDT in active mode.
