3.18 Watchdog Timer
Once the Enable cycle is active, a Refresh cycle is requested before
the time-out period. This restarts counting of the WDT period. When
the time counting goes over the period preset of WDT, it will assume
that the program operation is abnormal. A System Reset signal will
re-start when such error happens.
The following sample programs show how to Enable, Disable and
Refresh the Watchdog Timer:
