RX23W Group 31. Independent Watchdog Timer (IWDTa)
To use the IWDT, the IWDT-dedicated clock (IWDTCLK) should be supplied so that the IWDT operates even if the
peripheral module clock (PCLK) stops. The bus interface and registers operate with PCLK, and the 14-bit counter and
control circuits operate with IWDTCLK.
Figure 31.1 is a block diagram of the IWDT.
