Independent watchdog (IWDG) RM0008
489/1128 DocID13902 Rev 15
Reset value: 0x0000 0000 (not reset by Standby mode)
Note: If several reload values or prescaler values are used by application, it is mandatory to wait
until RVU bit is reset before changing the reload value and to wait until PVU bit is reset
before changing the prescaler value. However, after updating the prescaler and/or the
reload value it is not necessary to wait until RVU or PVU is reset before continuing code
execution (even in case of low-power mode entry, the write operation is taken into account
and will complete)

Bits 31:2 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.
Bit 1 RVU: Watchdog counter reload value update
This bit is set by hardware to indicate that an update of the reload value is ongoing. It is reset
by hardware when the reload value update operation is completed in the V
DD
voltage domain
(takes up to 5 RC 40 kHz cycles).
Reload value can be updated only when RVU bit is reset.
Bit 0 PVU: Watchdog prescaler value update
This bit is set by hardware to indicate that an update of the prescaler value is ongoing. It is
reset by hardware when the prescaler update operation is completed in the V
DD
voltage
domain (takes up to 5 RC 40 kHz cycles).
Prescaler value can be updated only when PVU bit is reset.
