1. In the same operation, write a logical one to WDCE and WDE. Even though the WDE
always is set, the WDE must be written to one to start the timed sequence.
2. Within the next four clock cycles, in the same operation, write the WDP bits as desired,
but with the WDCE bit cleared. The value written to the WDE bit is irrelevant.
8.4.2 Code Examples
The following code example shows one assembly and one C function for turning off the WDT.
The example assumes that interrupts are controlled (e.g., by disabling interrupts globally) so that
no interrupts will occur during execution of these functions.
Note: See “Code Examples” on page 6.
Assembly Code Example
WDT_off:
wdr
; Clear WDRF in MCUSR
ldi r16, (0<<WDRF)
out MCUSR, r16
; Write logical one to WDCE and WDE
; Keep old prescaler setting to prevent unintentional Watchdog Reset
in r16, WDTCSR
ori r16, (1<<WDCE)|(1<<WDE)
out WDTCSR, r16
; Turn off WDT
ldi r16, (0<<WDE)
out WDTCSR, r16
ret
C Code Example
void WDT_off(void)
{
_WDR();
/* Clear WDRF in MCUSR */
MCUSR = 0x00
/* Write logical one to WDCE and WDE */
WDTCSR |= (1<<WDCE) | (1<<WDE);
/* Turn off WDT */
WDTCSR = 0x00;
