Overview
The IWDG (Independent Watchdog) is suited to applications which require the watchdog to run as a totally independent process outside the main application, but have lower timing accuracy constraints. it serves to detect and resolve malfunctions due to software failure, and to trigger system reset.
Key features
- Free-running down-counter
- Reset (if watchdog activated) when the 32-bits down-counter value of 0x0000_0000 is reached
- Counter freeze in JTAG debug mode
