Bits 31:12 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.
Bits 11:0 RL[11:0]: Watchdog counter reload value
These bits are write access protected see Register access protection. They are written by
software to define the value to be loaded in the watchdog counter each time the value 0xAAAA
is written in the IWDG key register (IWDG_KR). The watchdog counter counts down from this
value. The timeout period is a function of this value and the clock prescaler. Refer to the
datasheet for the timeout information.
The RVU bit in the IWDG status register (IWDG_SR) must be reset to be able to change the
reload value.
Note: Reading this register returns the reload value from the V
DD
voltage domain. This value
may not be up to date/valid if a write operation to this register is ongoing on it. For this
reason the value read from this register is valid only when the RVU bit in the IWDG
status register (IWDG_SR) is reset.
