Watchdog integration

Hi all,

just a quick question. Is there any watchdog activated in the core module SW?

Thank you,

K.

Hi, it is not implemented and used yet. It’s on our TODO list. Right now the firmwares are really stable but in future we will add bc_watchdog.

Would you like to use watchdog in your project with BigClown? We would help you in that case.

Hi Martin,

thanks for the answer. Yes, I’m looking for watchdog since I want to use the BC to turn on/off heater and I want to make sure, the BC cannot freeze when heater is on. I am considering external solution like TPL5010QDDCTQ1 or integrated watchdog.

Thank you,

K.

We still have STM32 HAL Library in the SDK. So you can use Watchdog functions here:

sdk/stm/hal/inc/stm32l0xx_hal_iwdg.h
sdk/stm/hal/src/stm32l0xx_hal_iwdg.c

And functions

HAL_IWDG_Init
HAL_IWDG_Refresh

Here is an example how to use them
