5.12.4. Watchdog Timers System Integration

Each watchdog timer consists of a slave interface for control and status register (CSR) access, a register block, and a 32-bit down counter that operates on the slave interface clock (l4_sys_free_clk). A pause input, driven by the system manager, optionally pauses the counter when a CPU is being debugged.

The watchdog timer drives an interrupt request to the MPU and a reset request to the reset manager.
