lpc1768 watch dog timer

Hi,

I am using LPC1768 watch dog timer, how can we determine to find out the Selectable time period (TWDCLK × 232 × 4) and also i configure mode register to enable the WDT. when we use the RESET bit in WDMOD.

Hi,

From the following Figs, you can see that the WDT tick source can befrom irc_clk, PCLK and rtc_clk.

The nominal irc_clk is 4MHz , pls refer to section 4.3.1 Internal RC oscillator in UM10360.pdf

The rtc_clk is 1Hz which is generated by 32KHz crystal.

The PCLK for WDT is determined by the selection of register PCLKSEL0[PCLK_WDT], this is the setting, in other words:

PCLKSEL0[1:0]=00 in binary, CCLK/4 is selected.

PCLKSEL0[1:0]=01 in binary, CCLK is selected.

PCLKSEL0[1:0]=10 in binary, CCLK/2 is selected.

PCLKSEL0[1:0]=11 in binary, CCLK/8 is selected.

Pls refer to section 4.7.3 Peripheral Clock Selection registers 0 and 1 (PCLKSEL0 -
0x400F C1A8 and PCLKSEL1 - 0x400F C1AC)

Table 42. Peripheral Clock Selection register bit values
PCLKSEL0 and PCLKSEL1

value
00 PCLK_peripheral = CCLK/4 00
01 PCLK_peripheral = CCLK
10 PCLK_peripheral = CCLK/2
11 PCLK_peripheral = CCLK/8,

For the CCLK frequency, pls refer to the PLL0 configuration and the post divider. Pls refer to Fig 7. Clock generation for the LPC176x/5x.

Hope it can help you
