3.8 Watchdog Timer Configuration

The I/O port address of the watchdog timer is 2E(hex) and 2F(hex). 2E (hex) is the address port. 2F(hex) is the data port. User must first assign the address of register by writing address value into address port 2E(hex), then write/read data to/from the assigned register through data port 2F (hex).

Configuration Sequence

To program W83627HF configuration registers, the following configuration sequence must be fol- lowed:

(1)Enter the extended function mode

(2)Configure the configuration registers

(3)Exit the extended function mode

(1) Enter the extended function mode

To place the chip into the extended function mode, two successive writes of 0x87 must be applied to Extended Function Enable Registers (EFERs, i.e. 2Eh).

(2) Configurate the configuration registers

The chip selects the logical device and activates the desired logical devices through Extended Func- tion Index Register (EFIR) and Extended Function Data Register (EFDR). EFIR is located at the same address as EFER, and EFDR is located at address (EFIR+1).

First, write the Logical Device Number (i.e.,0x07) to the EFIR and then write the number of the desired logical device to the EFDR. Secondly, write the address of the desired configuration register within the logical device to the EFIR and then write (or read) the desired configuration register through EFDR.

(3) Exit the extended function mode

To exit the extended function mode, one write of 0xAA to EFER is required. Once the chip exits the extended function mode.
