FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
OPERATIONAL MODES
WINDOW WATCHDOG
The window watchdog is configurable using an external
resistor at the WDCONF terminal. The watchdog is cleared
through by the MODE1:2 bits in the SPI Control register (refer
to Table 8, page 29).
A watchdog clear is only allowed in the open window. If the
watchdog is cleared in the closed window or has not been
cleared at the end of the open window, the watchdog will
generate a reset on the RST_A terminal and reset the whole
device.
Note The watchdog clear in Normal request mode
(150 ms) (first watchdog clear) has no window.

Watchdog Configuration
If the WDCONF terminal is left open, the default watchdog
period is selected (typ. 150 ms). If no watchdog function is
required, the WDCONF terminal must be connected to GND.
The watchdog period is calculated using the following
formula:
t PWD [ms] = 0.991 * REXT [kΩ] + 0.648
VOLTAGE REGULATOR
The 908E624 chip contains a low-power, low dropout
voltage regulator to provide internal power and external
power for the MCU. The on-chip regulator consist of two
elements, the main voltage regulator and the low-voltage
reset circuit.
The VDD regulator accepts an unregulated input supply
and provides a regulated VDD supply to all digital sections of
the device. The output of the regulator is also connected to
the VDD terminal to provide the 5.0 V to the microcontroller.
Current Limit (Over-current) Protection
The voltage regulator has current limit to protect the device
against over-current and short circuit conditions.
Over-temperature Protection
The voltage regulator also features an over-temperature
protection having an over-temperature warning (Interrupt -
VDDT) and an over-temperature shutdown.
Stop Mode
During Stop mode, the Stop mode regulator supplies a
regulated output voltage. The Stop mode regulator has a
limited output current capability.
Sleep Mode
In Sleep mode the voltage regulator external VDD is turned
off.
FACTORY TRIMMING AND CALIBRATION
To enhance the ease-of-use of the 908E624, various
parameters (e.g., ICG trim value) are stored in the flash
memory of the device. The following flash memory locations
are reserved for this purpose and might have a value different
from the “empty” (0xFF) state:
• 0xFD80:0xFDDF Trim and Calibration Values
• 0xFFFE:0xFFFF Reset Vector
In the event the application uses these parameters, one
has to take care not to erase or override these values. If these
parameters are not used, these flash locations can be erased
and otherwise used.
Trim Values
The usage of the trim values, located in the flash memory,
is explained in the following.
Internal Clock Generator (ICG) Trim Value
The internal clock generator (ICG) module is used to
create a stable clock source for the microcontroller without
using any external components. The untrimmed frequency of
the low-frequency base clock (IBASE), will vary as much as
±25 percent due to process, temperature, and voltage
dependencies. To compensate for these dependencies, an
ICG trim value is located at address $FDC2. After trimming
the ICG, a range of typ. ±2% (±3% max.) at nominal
conditions (filtered (100nF) and stabilized (4,7uF) VDD = 5V,
TAmbient~23°C) and will vary over-temperature and voltage
(VDD) as indicated in the 68HC908EY16 data sheet.
To trim the ICG, these values have to be copied to the ICG
Trim Register ICGTR at address $38 of the MCU.
Important The value has to be copied after every reset.
