clock as the WDT clock source?
Answer If the WDT oscillator clock is chosen as the clock source then if the system enters a HALT condition the WDT timer will continue to function. When the WDT time-outs the system will be woken up from its HALT state. If the fSYS/4 clock is chosen as the WDT clock source then the WDT will cease to function and system will not be woken up when a HALT state is entered. The cost in choosing the WDT oscillator is that some power will be consumed by its clock. For systems that operate with HALT feature and need not to be woken up from HALT by WDT overflow, in this case the fSYS/4 clock source should be selected.
