(1) Clock control
This block controls supplying and stopping the operating clock (f
X) when the watch timer operates on the main
clock.
(2) 3-bit prescaler
This prescaler divides f
X to generate fX/2, fX/4, or fX/8.
(3) 8-bit counter
This 8-bit counter counts the source clock (f
BGCS).
(4) 11-bit prescaler
This prescaler divides f
W to generate a clock of fW/2
4
to fW/2
11
.
(5) 5-bit counter
This counter counts f
W or fW/2
9
, and generates a watch timer interrupt request signal at intervals of 2
4
/fW, 2
5
/fW,
2
12
/fW, or 2
14
/fW.
(6) Selector
The watch timer has the following five selectors.
• Selector that selects one of f
X, fX/2, fX/4, or fX/8 as the source clock of the watch timer
• Selector that selects the main clock (f
X) or subclock (fXT) as the clock of the watch timer
• Selector that selects fW or fW/2
9
as the count clock frequency of the 5-bit counter
• Selector that selects 2
4
/fW, 2
13
/fW, 2
5
/fW, or 2
14
/fW as the INTWT signal generation time interval
• Selector that selects 2
4
/fW to 2
11
/fW as the interval timer interrupt request signal (INTWTI) generation time interval
(7) PRSCM register
This is an 8-bit compare register that sets the interval time.
(8) PRSM register
This register controls clock supply to the watch timer.
(9) WTM register
This is an 8-bit register that controls the operation of the watch timer/interval timer, and sets the interrupt request
signal generation interval.
