Time until WDT Counters Overflow
The relationship between WDTCNT and WDTBCNT is shown in figure 16.2. The example shown
in the figure is the operation in interval timer mode, where WDTCNT restarts counting after it has
overflowed. In watchdog timer mode, WDTCNT and WDTBCNT are cleared to 0 after the reset
state is exited and start counting up again.
