• AVR watchdog reset timer-practical approach
  Practical approach to AVR microcontroller watchdog timer. How to program and control it.
  This is continuing of thread Why use watchdog variable timer. This post is about how watchdog timer on AVR microcontroller works and how to control it.As we mentioned earlier, watchdog timer is a distinct timer counter, which generates reset signal when it fill up.After watchdog timer counts up to maximum, it generates a short pulse [...]

• Why use watchdog variable timer
  Watchdog timer continuously inspects the program float. Basically if MCU program flow hangs, then watchdog timer resets microcontroller and brings embedded system back to life.
  Most of embedded microcontrollers contain watchdog timer. Watchdog variable timer is literally a „watchdog“. Watchdog timer continuously inspects the program float. Basically if microcontroller program hangs, then watchdog timer resets it and brings embedded system back to life.The idea is very simple. Lets say, you know, that your program has to be executed during 20ms. [...]
