Software must periodically “service” the Watchdog. There
are two ways to service the Watchdog, the choice depend-
ing on the programmed value of the WDSDME bit in the
Timer and Watchdog Configuration (TWCFG) register.
If the TWCFG.WDSDME bit is clear, the Watchdog is ser-
viced by writing a value to the WDCNT register. The value
written to the register is reloaded into the Watchdog counter.

If the TWCFG.WDSDME bit is set, the Watchdog is ser-
viced by writing the value 5Ch to the Watchdog Service
Data Match (WDSDM) register. This reloads the Watchdog
counter with the value previously programmed into the WD-
CNT register. The counter then continues counting down
le ^{from that value.}
A Watchdog error signal is generated by any of the following
events:
! The Watchdog serviced too late.
! The Watchdog serviced too often.
o ! The WDSDM register is written with a value other than
5Ch when WDSDM type servicing is enabled
(TWCFG.WDSDME = 1).
A Watchdog error condition resets the device.

24.4 TWM REGISTERS
The TWM registers controls the operation of the Timing and
Watchdog Module. There are six such registers:

The Timer and Watchdog Configuration (TWCFG) register
is used to set the Watchdog configuration. It controls the
b ^{Watchdog clock source (T0IN or T0OUT), the type of}
Watchdog servicing (using WDCNT or WDSDM), and the
locking state of the TWCFG, TWCPR, TIMER0, T0CSR,
and WDCNT registers. A register that is locked cannot be
read or written. A write operation is ignored and a read op-
O ^{eration returns unpredictable results.}
The WDSDM register is accessible in both Active and Pow-
er Save mode. The other TWM registers are accessible only
in Active mode.
If the TWCFG register is itself locked, it remains locked until
the device is reset. Any other locked registers also remain
locked until the device is reset. This feature prevents a run-
away program from tampering with the programmed Watch-
dog function.
