Hi all.
I am trying to enable the watchdog but the result is a total hang of the
board. Not even the bootloader is possible to reach after the crash and
I have to reapply power with P0.14 low to get access to the botloader
again. Reset is not enough.
The code to initialize the watchdog is
// initialize the watchdog timer
WDTC = 0xffffffff; // 15000000; // One second
= 15000000
WDMOD = WDEN | WDRESET; // Activate watchdog
WDFEED = 0xAA; WDFEED = 0x55;
I must have misunderstood the WD functionality. What am I doing wrong?
In the above code the watchdog should not trigger until 5 minutes
elapsed so even if a vector should be wrong the code that follow should
run for a while but as soon as I write to the WDMOD register I get a hang.
