This bit is set if a Watchdog Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the
flag.
• Bit 2 – BORF: Brown-out Reset Flag
This bit is set if a Brown-out Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the
flag.
• Bit 1 – EXTRF: External Reset Flag
This bit is set if an External Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag.
• Bit 0 – PORF: Power-on Reset Flag
This bit is set if a Power-on Reset occurs. The bit is reset only by writing a logic zero to the flag.
To make use of the Reset Flags to identify a reset condition, the user should read and then reset the MCUSR as
early as possible in the program. If the register is cleared before another reset occurs, the source of the reset can
be found by examining the Reset Flags.
8.5.2 WDTCR – Watchdog Timer Control Register
• Bit 7 – WDIF: Watchdog Timeout Interrupt Flag
This bit is set when a time-out occurs in the Watchdog Timer and the Watchdog Timer is configured for interrupt.
WDIF is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. Alternatively, WDIF is
cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. When the I-bit in SREG and WDIE are set, the Watchdog Time-out Inter-
rupt is executed.
• Bit 6 – WDIE: Watchdog Timeout Interrupt Enable
When this bit is written to one, WDE is cleared, and the I-bit in the Status Register is set, the Watchdog Time-out
Interrupt is enabled. In this mode the corresponding interrupt is executed instead of a reset if a timeout in the
Watchdog Timer occurs.
If WDE is set, WDIE is automatically cleared by hardware when a time-out occurs. This is useful for keeping the
Watchdog Reset security while using the interrupt. After the WDIE bit is cleared, the next time-out will generate a
reset. To avoid the Watchdog Reset, WDIE must be set after each interrupt.
