5.3.4 WDT Memory Map/Register Definition
The WDT programmable register map occupies 16 bytes of memory-mapped space. Reading undefined
portions of the memory map returns all zeros, and writing has no effect.
All WDT registers are 16- or 32-bits wide, located on 16-bit address boundaries, and should be accessed
as 16- or 32-bit quantities. All addresses used in this chapter are offsets from the WDT base, as defined in
Chapter 3, “Memory Map.”
Table 5-33 shows the WDT memory map.
5.3.4.1 System Watchdog Control Register (SWCRR)
The system watchdog control register (SWCRR), shown in Figure 5-22, controls the software watchdog
period and configures watchdog timer operation. The SWCRR can be read at any time but can be written
only once after system reset.
