Typically, WDO will be connected to the
non-maskable interrupt input (NMI) of a
µP.
When V
CC
drops below the reset threshold,
WDO will go LOW whether or not the watch-
dog timer has timed out. Normally this would
trigger an NMI but RESET goes LOW simulta-
neously, and thus overrides the NMI.
If WDI is left unconnected, WDO can be used as
a low-line output. Since floating WDI disables
the internal timer, WDO goes LOW only when
V
CC
falls below the reset threshold, thus func-
tioning as a low-line output.
