Watchdog Flags
Early Watchdog Timer Fault Flag: When a watchdog restart occurs too early (before the programmed watchdog
StartTime), the RSTB pin is driven low and this flag is set. It must be cleared by the user. Note that both EWDF
and POR could be set if both reset sources have occurred since the flags were cleared by the user. Battery-
backed, read/write.
Late Watchdog Timer Fault Flag: When either a watchdog restart occurs too late (after the programmed
watchdog EndTime) or no restart occurs, the RSTB pin is driven low and this flag is set. It must be cleared by
the user. Note that both LWDF and POR could be set if both reset sources have occurred since the flags were
cleared by the user. Battery-backed, read/write.
Power-On Reset: When the RSTB signal is activated by V
will not set this flag. Note that one or both of the watchdog flags and the POR flag could be set if both reset
sources have occurred since the flags were cleared by the user. Battery-backed, read/write. (internally set, user
must clear bit)
Low Backup: If the V
V
values should be treated as unknown. The user should clear it to 0 when initializing the system. Battery-backed.
Read/Write (internally set, user must clear bit).
Timekeeping – Years
Contains the lower two BCD digits of the year. Lower nibble contains the value for years; upper nibble contains
the value for 10s of years. Each nibble operates from 0 to 9. The range for the register is 0-99. Battery-backed,
read/write.
Timekeeping – Months
Contains the BCD digits for the month. Lower nibble contains the lower digit and operates from 0 to 9; upper
nibble (one bit) contains the upper digit and operates from 0 to 1. The range for the register is 1-12. Battery-
backed, read/write.
Timekeeping – Date of the month
Contains the BCD digits for the date of the month. Lower nibble contains the lower digit and operates from 0 to
9; upper nibble contains the upper digit and operates from 0 to 3. The range for the register is 1-31. Battery-
backed, read/write.
Timekeeping – Day of the week
Lower nibble contains a value that correlates to day of the week. Day of the week is a ring counter that counts
from 1 to 7 then returns to 1. The user must assign meaning to the day value, as the day is not integrated with the
date. Battery-backed, read/write.
Timekeeping – Hours
Contains the BCD value of hours in 24-hour format. Lower nibble contains the lower digit and operates from 0
to 9; upper nibble (two bits) contains the upper digit and operates from 0 to 2. The range for the register is 0-23.
Battery-backed, read/write.
Timekeeping – Minutes
Contains the BCD value of minutes. Lower nibble contains the lower digit and operates from 0 to 9; upper nibble
contains the upper minutes digit and operates from 0 to 5. The range for the register is 0-59. Battery-backed,
read/write.
