3.23.4 Independent watchdog
The independent watchdog is based on a 12-bit downcounter and 8-bit prescaler. It is
clocked from an independent 32 kHz internal RC and as it operates independently from the
main clock, it can operate in Stop and Standby modes. It can be used either as a watchdog
to reset the device when a problem occurs, or as a free-running timer for application timeout
management. It is hardware- or software-configurable through the option bytes.
3.23.5 Window watchdog
The window watchdog is based on a 7-bit downcounter that can be set as free-running. It
can be used as a watchdog to reset the device when a problem occurs. It is clocked from
the main clock. It has an early warning interrupt capability and the counter can be frozen in
debug mode.
3.23.6 SysTick timer
This timer is dedicated to real-time operating systems, but could also be used as a standard
downcounter. It features:
• A 24-bit downcounter
• Autoreload capability
• Maskable system interrupt generation when the counter reaches 0
• Programmable clock source.
3.24 Inter-integrated circuit interface (I
2
C)
The devices feature up to four I
2
C bus interfaces which can operate in multimaster and
slave modes:
• One I
2
C interface supports the Standard mode (up to 100 kHz), Fast-mode (up to
400 kHz) modes and Fast-mode plus (up to 1 MHz).
• Three I
2
C interfaces support the Standard mode (up to 100 KHz) and the Fast mode
(up to 400 KHz). Their frequency can be increased up to 1 MHz. For more details on
the complete solution, refer to the nearest STMicroelectronics sales office.
All I
2
C interfaces features 7/10-bit addressing mode and 7-bit addressing mode (as slave)
and embed a hardware CRC generation/verification.
They can be served by DMA and they support SMBus 2.0/PMBus.
The devices also include programmable analog and digital noise filters (see Table 6).
