Embedded Controller AEC-6940 Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer A-1
Embedded Controller AEC-6940 A.1 General Information The AEC-6940 utilizes Fintek F75111 chipset as its watchdog timer Controller. The other Watchdog timer is set to second or minute and the range is 0 to 256 seconds or minutes. When the timeout has occurred, that will generate a status bit to indicate it and write one will be clear. A.2 Access Interface The F75111 provides one serial access interface, I2C Bus, to read/write internal registers.
Embedded Controller AEC-6940 A.3 Registers Description Configuration and function select Register – Index 03h Power-on default [7:0] =0000_1000b Bit Name R/W PWR 7 Reserved R/W VSB3V 6 IRQ_LEVEL R/W 5 IRQ_MODE R/W VSB3V Select IRQ Polarity (Level). Set to 1, IRQ is low active and SMI# is high active. Default, the IRQ is high active and SMI# is low active. VSB3V IRQ/SMI# mode select. 0-Level mode (IRQ mode), 1-Pulse Mode (SMI# mode). If pulse mode is selected, the active pulse is over 100us.
Embedded Controller AEC-6940 5 WD_ENABLE R/W VSB3V Enable watchdog timer. 4 WD_PULSE 3 WD_UNIT 2 WD_HACTIVE R/W VSB3V Watchdog output level or pulse. If set 0 (default), the pin of watchdog is level output. If write 1, the pin will output with a pulse. R/W VSB3V Watchdog unit select. Default 0 is select second. Write 1 to select minute. R/W VSB3V Program WD2 output level. If set to 1 and watchdog asserted, the pin will be high. If set to 0 and watchdog asserted, this pin will drive low (default).
