Watchdog Timer

Watchdog Timer IP is used to monitor status of Host.

Overview

Watchdog Timer IP is used to monitor status of Host. Host sends kick signal to the IP periodically which resets the timer inside the IP. When kick signal is missed for the first time, WDT IP sends an interrupt to the Host and the second consequent miss of kick signal triggers reset to the host.

Key features

  • Watch Dog Timer IP supports- 24-bit prescalar.
  • Enable and timeout duration are programmable.
  • Optional safety feature to unlock the safety pattern.
  • Supports Suspend mode operation.

Casting a wide safety net through post processing Checking

In this paper, we explain how we adopted the post processing method to make sure we check for signatures that are expected are present in the log files. This acted as a safety net when engineers made inadvertent mistakes and introduced issues in the code base.

Low Power Design in SoC Using Arm IP

This paper discusses about the low power IP components from ARM can help one to realize the low power features in the SoC. It should be noted that this paper does not discuss about the low power concepts or design techniques. Rather, it focuses on the implementation approaches using ARM low power IP.
