COP reset

tyson — Thu, 23 Feb 2006 23:22:52 GMT

Hi all,

is there any Application Notes on the COP(Computer Operating Properly) for MC9S12NE64?

i'm aware that by writing to COPCTL register, watchdog is enabled and writing ARMCOP = 0x55;
ARMCOP = 0xAA;
will restart the watch dog.

i have a set of queries for COP:-

1. Is there any bit indication, which tells me wheter the Reset happened due to Watch dog(COP) or due to some other reasons.

2. I'm installing a COP ISR (vector 2). but, on watch dog getting fired, it is not coming to the ISR. But, the system is getting reset.

please help me out of this.

Thanks

Hi Tyson,

Well your 2. answers your 1.
If the COP vector is fetched it's because you've got a COP Reset. (p°90 datasheet v4). It's a dedicated vector.

If you don't take the ISR you declared may be it is overridden somewhere else. (like double declared)

Check in the vector table in the debugger that you have the address of the ISR you want to be executed.

COP is a RESET, not a normal ISR.

Cheers,

Alvin.

Hi,

I have the same problem: COP is configured and working, but if it fires, the "normal" reset is executed.

My *.PRM file contains:
VECTOR 0 _Startup /* reset vector*/
VECTOR 2 _COPStartup /* COP reset vector: called when watchdog has triggered */

Via debugger I see:
00FFF8 FF FF C0 19 FF FF C0 00

0xC019 is the address of _COPStartup(), 0xC000 points to _Startup()

So far so good, but _COPStartup() is never executed. In case of a watchdog timeout, the CPU restarts with _Startup() instead of _COPStartup().

What goes wrong??

Thanks in advance!!
