Crack NXP Microcontroller P87CL52X2 Memory needs to have clear understanding about the functions of watchdog, Definitions :tOSC is the oscillator period, N is the selected prescaler tap value, W is the main counter autoload value, tMIN is the minimum watchdog time-out value (when the autoload value is 0), tMAX is the maximum time-out value (when the autoload value is FFH), tD is the design time-out value.
tMIN = tOSC ´ 12 ´ 64 tMAX = tMIN ´ 128 ´ 256
tD = tMIN ´ 2PRESCALER ´ (W + 1)
(where prescaler = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7)
Note that the design procedure is anticipated to be as follows. A tMAX will be chosen either from equipment or operation considerations and will most likely be the next convenient value higher than tD. (If the watchdog were inadvertently to start from FFH, an overflow would be guaranteed, barring other anomalies, to occur within tMAX). Then the value for the prescaler would be chosen from:
prescaler = log2 (tMAX / (tOSC ´ 12 ´ 256)) – 6
This then also fixes tMIN. An autoload value would then be chosen from:
W = tD / tMIN – 1
The software must be written so that a feed operation takes place every tD seconds from the last feed operation. Some tradeoffs may need to be made. It is not advisable to include feed operations in minor loops or in subroutines unless the feed operation is a specific subroutine by IC code extraction.
Watchdog Control Register (WDCON) (Bit Addressable) Address C0 The following bits of this register are read only in the ROM part when EA is high: WDMOD, PRE0, PRE1, and PRE2. That is, the register will reflect the mask programmed values.
In the ROM part with EA high, these bits are taken from mask coded bits and are not readable by the program. WDRUN is read only in the ROM part when EA is high and WDMOD is in the watchdog mode. When WDMOD is in the timer mode, WDRUN functions normally.
The parameters written into WDMOD, PRE0, PRE1, and PRE2 by the program are not applied directly to the watchdog timer subsystem. The watchdog timer subsystem is directly controlled by a second register which stores these bits to facilitate the process of Crack NXP Microcontroller P87LPC769 Internal Flash.
The transfer of these bits from the user register (WDMOD) to the second control register takes place when the watchdog is fed. This prevents random code execution from directly foiling the watchdog function. This does not affect the operation where these bits are taken from mask coded values.
