UJA1076A
High-speed CAN core system basis chip
6.3 On-chip oscillator
The on-chip oscillator provides the timing reference for the on-chip watchdog and the
internal timers. The on-chip oscillator is supplied by an internal supply that is connected to
V
BAT
and is independent of V1/V2.
6.4 Watchdog (UJA1076A/xx/WD versions)
Three watchdog modes are supported: Window, Timeout and Off. The watchdog period is
programmed via the NWP control bits in the WD_and_Status register (see Table 4
). The
default watchdog period is 128 ms.
A watchdog trigger event is any write access to the WD_and_Status register. When the
watchdog is triggered, the watchdog timer is reset.
In watchdog Window mode, a watchdog trigger event within a closed watchdog window
(i.e. the first half of the window before t
trig(wd)1
) will generate an SBC reset. If the watchdog
is triggered before the watchdog timer overflows in Timeout or Window mode, or within
the open watchdog window (after t
trig(wd)1
but before t
trig(wd)2
), the timer restarts
immediately.
The following watchdog events result in an immediate system reset:
• the watchdog overflows in Window mode
• the watchdog is triggered in the first half of the watchdog period in Window mode
• the watchdog overflows in Timeout mode while a cyclic interrupt (CI) is pending
• the state of the WDOFF pin changes in Normal mode or Standby mode
• the watchdog mode control bit (WMC) changes state in Normal mode
After a watchdog reset (short reset; see Section 6.5.1
and Table 11), the default watchdog
period is selected (NWP = 100). The watchdog can be switched off completely by forcing
pin WDOFF HIGH. The watchdog can also be switched off by setting bit WMC to 1 in
Standby mode. If the watchdog was turned off by setting WMC, any pending interrupt will
re-enable it.
Note that the state of bit WMC cannot be changed in Standby mode if an interrupt is
pending. Any attempt to change WMC when an interrupt is pending will be ignored.
6.4.1 Watchdog Window behavior
The watchdog runs continuously in Window mode.
If the watchdog overflows, or is triggered in the first half of the watchdog period (less than
t
trig(wd)1
after the start of the watchdog period), a system reset will be performed.
Watchdog overflow occurs if the watchdog is not triggered within t
trig(wd)2
after the start of
the watchdog period.
If the watchdog is triggered in the second half of the watchdog period (at least t
trig(wd)1
, but
not more than t
trig(wd)2
, after the start of the watchdog period), the watchdog will be reset.
The watchdog is in Window mode when pin WDOFF is LOW, the SBC is in Normal mode
and the watchdog mode control bit (WMC) is set to 0.
