Bits 31:3 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.
Bits 2:0 PR[2:0]: Prescaler divider
These bits are write access protected see Section 42.3.5: Register access protection. They are
written by software to select the prescaler divider feeding the counter clock. PVU bit of the
IWDG status register (IWDG_SR) must be reset in order to be able to change the prescaler
divider.

Note: Reading this register returns the prescaler 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. For this
reason the value read from this register is valid only when the PVU bit in the IWDG
status register (IWDG_SR) is reset.
