Hi, I'm wanting to setup the watchdog, in watchdog mode. My clock source is 3.68MHz and i'm using ACLK as the watchdog clock source. As a simple exercise, I do: WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTSSEL + WDTCNTCL; while(1) { WDTCTL |= 8; // clear watchdog } but even in the while loop, the watchdog keeps triggering... why is the watchdog NOT being cleared in the loop????

hi! everyone! I'm using watchdog reset of MSP430F122. Anyway, watchdog reset is not working. i tested . When i setting Watchdog registor then system immediately reset. Watchdog reset time is determined. I want to use the 250msec or 500msec .but device is determined 64msec per 4MHZ crystal I want to seclect watchdog reset time. how can registor setting ? or do you have idea? and how ca...

Hello Forum members, I am using MSP430F2418 with CrossStudio. I want to use internal watchdog of this controller. I have configured the watchdog as WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; WDTCTL = WDT_ARST_1000; The refresh routine for watchdog counter consists as: WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTCNTCL; With this configuration, I am getting a watchdog reset after certain intervals. Here I am using a XTAL ...

Hey, I'm using a 1612 and i code in assembler. I'm trying to use the watchdog in watchdog mode. I run solar cells for power, and if my gps does not have enough power it will get locked up in my code. I'm trying to set the watchdog for a 1000ms delay using the ACKL(32k). A one second delay will give me enough time to run through a routine. I'm hoping to set the watchdog throughout the ...

Hi, I need to define a variable in ram that must keep its value after watchdog reset. I defined simply a unsigned long variable. I wrote a value but after watchdog reset its value was different. I need to do it to check if I came to some software sentence from power up or from watchdog. I haven't possibility for doint it in EEPROM. Please, could somebody help me? Thanks. Clau...

Hi I'm having problems with the watchdog in a C program. When I set the flags, the program reset and it doesn't go to main(). If I don't stop the watchdog, the program work fine, and if I stop the watchdog, the program work fine too. Can anyone help me? Another question.... Did someone make a PID algorithm in msp430f149? Thanks a lot!!! Anderson Castellar ____________________________

Hi All. I'm wondering how people debug MSP430-based systems that have external watchdogs, e.g. one that will hit the MSP430 with an NMI if the external watchdog (chip) isn't hit by the MSP430 within the watchdog timeout period. Is it feasible to single-step, etc? Do you need to have special "while debugging" code that differs from production code? Do people simply disable / dis

Trust me, if I could think of a way to accomplish what I need to without the watchdog reset, I would. I'm doing a fairly complex design using a pretty cut-rate part (F2012). The USI/I2C hardware pretty much sucks and it gets stuck periodically for various reasons. I use the watchdog to get unstuck. I'm using almost all of my available resources and this has been the most compact and reliable met...

For my application I was looking for a very low current reset chips - supervisor and watchdog with no external components and in a small case (SO8 is too big). After searching at ti.com I only found the TPS3813 - with 10uA current consumption. Too much. But then I stumbled through my archive of this list and there was a suggestion: TI TPS3110K33 (2uA) - quite good. And there is the MAX686

Hello everyone, I want to have the 1000ms watchdog for my application, sourced from ACLK, so I have started it with this: WDTCTL = WDT_ARST_1000; And then in my main processing loop, I update it as often as possible with WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTCNTCL; However, in the debug session when I read the WDTCTL register, it does not retain the settings it previously had with the WDT_ARST_1000.

Hi folks, I need to use the Watchdog timer for the main polling loop, Timer A and B have other fuctions. Unfortuantely, I've not been able to get it to function as an interval timer versus a Power on Reset trigger. The code gets considerably more complex if I have to overload the A/B timers. The debugger shows the timer vector is initialized in flash and we do get one, but only one, NMI ...

Hi, We're running a program in a while loop and we believe we disable the Watchdog correctly in the beginning. The program runs correctly and never resets the CPU (by never I mean for at least 24 hours). However, when we go into a specific state and execute a specific block of code afterwards we get interrupted but it seems that it's stuck in the main loop. We're using mspgcc and mspdebu...

Hi Can anyone help me. I am using a button press to cause the wdog to reset my application. I use WDTCTL = WDT_ADLY_1000; IE1 |= WDTIE; while(1); I dont relaod the wdog so the device resets. Then at initialisation I use WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; // Stop watchdog timer // Xtal related activity // Set the ACLK to use the 3.6864MHz Xtal BCSCTL1 |= XTS;

Hi Group, I have a project where I use timer A as an RTC, the watchdog timer as a general system watchdog and then timer B as a 16 hz sample timer for the internal AD, plus USART0 and 1 in use as well. I have two configurations which seem to lose a second or add a second to my RTC. The WDT, Timer A, USART1 in SPI mode are common, with XT1=32768 Hz/6pF and XT2=7.3728MHz. Case 1: Common inter
