Note: 1. The example code assumes that the part specific header file is included.
Note: If the Watchdog is accidentally enabled, for example by a runaway pointer or brown-out condition, the
device will be reset and the Watchdog Timer will stay enabled. If the code is not set up to handle the Watchdog,
this might lead to an eternal loop of time-out resets. To avoid this situation, the application software should
always clear the Watchdog System Reset Flag (WDRF) and the WDE control bit in the initialization routine,
even if the Watchdog is not in use.
The following code example shows one assembly and one C function for changing the time-out value of the
Watchdog Timer.
Assembly Code Example
(1)
WDT_off:
; Turn off global interrupt
cli
; Reset Watchdog Timer
wdr
; Clear WDRF in MCUSR
in r16, MCUSR
andi r16, (0xff & (0<<WDRF))
out MCUSR, r16
; Write logical one to WDCE and WDE
; Keep old prescaler setting to prevent
unintentional time-out
in r16, WDTCSR
ori r16, (1<<WDCE) | (1<<WDE)
out WDTCSR, r16
; Turn off WDT
ldi r16, (0<<WDE)
out WDTCSR, r16
; Turn on global interrupt

C Code Example
(1)
void WDT_off(void)
{
__disable_interrupt();
__watchdog_reset();
/* Clear WDRF in MCUSR */
MCUSR &= ~(1<<WDRF);
/* Write logical one to WDCE and WDE */
/* Keep old prescaler setting to prevent
unintentional time-out */
WDTCSR |= (1<<WDCE) | (1<<WDE);
/* Turn off WDT */
WDTCSR = 0x00;
__enable_interrupt();
