The WDM is an 8-bit register that controls the watchdog timer operation.
To prevent erroneous clearing of the watchdog timer by an inadvertent program loop, writing can only be performed by
If the 3rd and 4th bytes of the operation code are not complements, a write is not performed and an operand error interrupt
If recovery from an operand error is simply performed by means of an RETB instruction, an endless loop will result.
As an operand error interrupt is only generated in the event of an inadvertent program loop (with the NEC assembler,
Other write instructions (MOV WDM, A; AND WDM, #byte; SET1 WDM.7, etc.) are ignored and do not perform any
After a system reset (RESET input), once the watchdog timer has been started (by setting (1) the RUN bit), the WDM
The WDM can be read at any time by a data transfer instruction.
RESET input clears the WDM to 00H.
The WDM format is shown in Figure 12-2.
