Operating Mode
The WDT operates in trip count mode as described below.
Trip Count
The WDT contains a software programmable trip counter register that
sets the number of times that the timer can expire before the
WDTRSTO pin
is continually asserted (until the next time hardware reset is applied). The
trip counter is not cleared by the WDT generated reset. This gives soft-
ware the ability to count the number of WDT generated resets using the
CURTRIPVAL bits in the WDTTRIP register.
