The windowed watchdog timer (WWDT) can be used to supervise the operation of the device, specifically code execution. The WWDT can be used to generate a reset or an interrupt if the application software does not successfully reset the watchdog within a specified window of time. Key features of the WWDT include:
The following tests must be applied for the targeted ASIL as functional safety mechanisms for this module (to provide diagnostic coverage on a specific function):
| Safety Mechanism | Description | Faults | Failure Modes |
|---|---|---|
| WDT1 (latent fault coverage) | Periodic software read back of static configuration registers | Targets the static configuration registers in watchdog. |
| WDT2 (latent fault coverage) | WWDT counter check | This test is a test of diagnostic which checks the functioning of the counter. |
| WDT3 (latent fault coverage) | WWDT software test | This test is a test of diagnostic, which targets the reset or NMI generation logic. |
| WDT4 (latent fault coverage) | Redundant WDT | This is a test of diagnostic which covers the latent faults in the watchdog by using a redundant watchdog. |
