The Watchdog Timer is reset by the proc_nreset signal. As the watchdog fault always causes a
processor reset if WDRSTEN is set, the Watchdog Timer is always reset after a Watchdog
Reset, and the Watchdog is enabled by default and with a period set to a maximum.
When the WDRSTEN in WDT_MR bit is reset, the watchdog fault has no impact on the reset
controller.
The Reset State Manager manages the following priorities between the different reset sources,
given in descending order:
Particular cases are listed below:

• Backup Reset
• Wake-up Reset
• Watchdog Reset
• Software Reset
