sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer#

void sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer (void )

To initialize the Watchdog Timer.

This API initializes the Watchdog Timer by enabling the peripheral power. It also configures the Watchdog Timer to run during sleep mode and unmasks its interrupt.

Note

• This function should be called before using any other Watchdog Timer functions.

sl_si91x_watchdog_configure_clock#

sl_status_t sl_si91x_watchdog_configure_clock (watchdog_timer_clock_config_t * timer_clk_config_ptr)

This API is no longer supported due to the restriction on peripheral drivers to configuring clocks.

This API configures the Watchdog Timer's low frequency and BG-PMU clock sources.

• Pre-condition:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

Returns

• sl_status_t Status code indicating the result:

  • SL_STATUS_OK - return ok to support backward compatibility.

For more information on status codes, see SL STATUS DOCUMENTATION.

sl_si91x_watchdog_set_configuration#

sl_status_t sl_si91x_watchdog_set_configuration (watchdog_timer_config_t * timer_config_ptr)

To configure Watchdog Timer parameters.

This API configures the Watchdog Timer parameters, including interrupt time (WDT restart time), system reset time, and window time (lower time stamp for WDT restart, if necessary). The interrupt time should be greater than the window time; otherwise, the API will return an error.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

Returns

• sl_status_t Status code indicating the result:

  • SL_STATUS_OK - Success, timer parameters configured properly.

  • SL_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER - Timer configuration structure members have invalid values.

  • SL_STATUS_NULL_POINTER - The parameter is a null pointer.

  • SL_STATUS_INVALID_CONFIGURATION - Timer configuration structure member 'interrupt_time' is less than or equal to 'window_time'. It should be greater than the window time of the timer.

For more information on status codes, see SL STATUS DOCUMENTATION.

sl_si91x_watchdog_register_timeout_callback#

sl_status_t sl_si91x_watchdog_register_timeout_callback (watchdog_timer_callback_t on_timeout_callback)

To register the Watchdog Timer timeout callback.

This API registers a callback function to be called when the Watchdog Timer timeout interrupt occurs. Registering the callback also enables its interrupts. Before registering a new callback, the user must unregister any previously registered callback using the sl_si91x_watchdog_unregister_timeout_callback function.

Returns

• sl_status_t Status code indicating the result:

  • SL_STATUS_OK - Successfully registered the timer timeout callback.

  • SL_STATUS_BUSY - The callback is already registered; the user must unregister the previous callback before registering again.

  • SL_STATUS_NULL_POINTER - The callback function pointer parameter is a null pointer.

For more information on status codes, see SL STATUS DOCUMENTATION.

This API sets the Watchdog Timer interrupt time, also referred to as the upper time-stamp for WDT restart. The maximum value for the interrupt time is 31.

• Number of clock pulses for timer timeout = 2^(interrupt_time)

Note

• The 'interrupt_time' value should be greater than the window time.

• Pre-conditions:

Returns

• boolean_t Returns true if the Watchdog Timer reset the system, otherwise returns false.

sl_si91x_watchdog_deinit_timer#

void sl_si91x_watchdog_deinit_timer (void )

sl_si91x_watchdog_start_timer#

__STATIC_INLINE void sl_si91x_watchdog_start_timer (void )

To start and enable the Watchdog Timer.

Once the Watchdog Timer (WDT) is started, the interrupt time will begin incrementing. When it reaches the set interrupt time value, the WDT will generate an interrupt, and the timer will load the system reset time value. Before it reaches this value, the WDT should be restarted (kicked) to avoid a system reset.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_register_timeout_callback

sl_si91x_watchdog_stop_timer#

__STATIC_INLINE void sl_si91x_watchdog_stop_timer (void )

To stop the Watchdog Timer by disabling it.

This API stops an already running Watchdog Timer. It disables the timer by updating the 'WWD_TIMER_ENABLE' register bits. Specifically, it updates the 'wwd_timer_en' (23:16) bits of the timer enable register to 0xF0, thereby disabling the WDT timer.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_start_timer

sl_si91x_watchdog_restart_timer#

__STATIC_INLINE void sl_si91x_watchdog_restart_timer (void )

To restart (kick) an already running Watchdog Timer.

This API sets the restart bit of the Watchdog Timer when it is already enabled. It should be used for an already started WDT timer, not for starting a stopped timer.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_start_timer

sl_si91x_watchdog_enable_system_reset_on_processor_lockup#

__STATIC_INLINE void sl_si91x_watchdog_enable_system_reset_on_processor_lockup (void )

To enable the Watchdog Timer to reset the system on processor lockup.

This API enables the Watchdog Timer (WDT) to generate a system reset when the processor gets stuck or reaches a lockup state. It achieves this by setting the 'PROCESSOR_STUCK_RESET_EN' bit of the 'WWD_ARM_STUCK_EN' register of the WDT.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

sl_si91x_watchdog_disable_system_reset_on_processor_lockup#

__STATIC_INLINE void sl_si91x_watchdog_disable_system_reset_on_processor_lockup (void )

To disable the Watchdog Timer from resetting the system on processor lockup.

This API disables the Watchdog Timer (WDT) from generating a system reset when the processor gets stuck or reaches a lockup state. It achieves this by writing '0' to the 'PROCESSOR_STUCK_RESET_EN' bit of the 'WWD_ARM_STUCK_EN' register of the WDT.

• Pre-conditions:

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_init_timer

  • sl_si91x_watchdog_enable_system_reset_on_processor_lockup
