C. Watchdog Timer Configuration
The WDT is used to generate a variety of output signals after a user programmable count. The
WDT is suitable for use in the prevention of system lock-up, such as when software becomes
trapped in a deadlock. Under these sorts of circumstances, the timer will count to zero and the
selected outputs will be driven. Under normal circumstance, the user will restart the WDT at
regular intervals before the timer counts to zero.
