FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
OPERATIONAL MODES
function is enabled it is not possible to disable it via software.
Reset clears the WDRE bit.
To prevent a Watchdog reset, the Watchdog timer has to
be cleared in the Window Open frame. This is done by writing
a logic “1” to the WDRST bit in the Watchdog Control register
(WDCTL). The actual reset of the watchdog counter occurs at
the end of the corresponding SPI transmission with the rising
edge of the SS signal.
If the watchdog is enabled, it will generate a system reset
if the timer has reached its end value or if a watchdog reset
(WDRST) has occurred in the closed window.
The watchdog period can be selected with 2 bits in the
WDCTL, in order to get 10ms, 20ms, 40ms and 80ms period.

Stop mode
Operations of the watchdog function is ceased in stop
mode (counter/oscillator stopped). After wake-up the
watchdog timer is automatically cleared in order to give the
MCU the full time to reset the watchdog.
Sleep mode
Operations of the watchdog function is ceased is sleep
mode. Due to the reason that the main voltage regulator
asserts an LVR reset the Watchdog functionality is disabled
and the WDRE bit is cleared as soon as sleep mode is
entered. To reenable this function bit WDRE has to be set
after wake-up.

WDRE - Watchdog Reset Enable Bit
This read/write (write once) bit activates the watchdog The
WDRE can only be set and can not be cleared by software.
Reset clears the WDRE bit.
1 = Watchdog enabled
0 = Watchdog disabled
WDP1:0 - Watchdog Period Select Bits
This read/write bit select the clock rate of the Watchdog.
Reset clears the WDP1:0 bits.

Voltage Regulator
The 908E621 contains a low power, low drop voltage
regulator to provide internal power and external power for the
MCU. The on-chip regulator consist of two elements, the
main 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.
Run mode
During RUN mode the main voltage regulator is on. It will
provide a regulated supply to all digital sections.
