#92559 - ALE+WDT
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Andy Neil said:
Note that this is not a terribly effective watchdog; eg, it won't help if your code gets stuck in a loop!

When feeded by ALE, it is not a watchdog at all. Even if there is no code inside, watchdog wouldn't act (until ALE stops).

That just makes up a power supply supervisor (like MAX812) but with optional manual reset (if a switch is connected). However this may be useful during code development since watchdog wouldn't disturb.
