5.8.4 System Options Register (SOPT)
This register may be read at any time. Bits 3 and 2 are unimplemented and always read 0. This is a
write-once register so only the first write after reset is honored. Any subsequent attempt to write to SOPT
(intentionally or unintentionally) is ignored to avoid accidental changes to these sensitive settings. SOPT
should be written during the user’s reset initialization program to set the desired controls even if the desired
settings are the same as the reset settings.

Field Description
7
COPE
COP Watchdog Enable — This write-once bit defaults to 1 after reset.
0 COP watchdog timer disabled.
1 COP watchdog timer enabled (force reset on timeout).
6
COPT
COP Watchdog Timeout — This write-once bit defaults to 1 after reset.
0 Short timeout period selected (2
13
cycles of BUSCLK).
1 Long timeout period selected (2
18
cycles of BUSCLK).
5
STOPE
Stop Mode Enable — This write-once bit defaults to 0 after reset, which disables stop mode. If stop mode is
disabled and a user program attempts to execute a STOP instruction, an illegal opcode reset is forced.
0 Stop mode disabled.
1 Stop mode enabled.
1
BKGDPE
Background Debug Mode Pin Enable — The BKGDPE bit enables the PTG0/BKGD/MS pin to function as
BKGD/MS. When the bit is clear, the pin will function as PTG0, which is an output-only general-purpose I/O. This
pin always defaults to BKGD/MS function after any reset.
0 BKGD pin disabled.
1 BKGD pin enabled.
