CAUTION
The watchdog timers registers are limited to 32-bit and 16-bit data accesses; 8-

WDT_WISR register is used for software backward compatibility.
• The WDT_WIER and WDT_WIRQENSET/WDT_WIRQENCLR registers have the same
functionality. The WDT_WIER register is used for software backward compatibility.
• The WDT_WIRQSTATRAW and WDT_WIRQSTAT registers give the same information
when read. The WDT_WIRQSTATRAW register is used for debug.
