Hi
I am using the TMS570LS0332 in conjunction with the TPS64381, using the TPS's watchdog. My application needs to know when a reset was caused because of the TPS watchdog.
What is the best way to do this? Is there a register on the device that can be read after a reset that will show it caused a reset because of the watchdog?
The other way I thought I could tell the difference is based on the reset line into the Hercules that the TPS reset line is connected to. TI recommended (and I believe the TMS570 HDKs are wired this way) connecting the reset line of the TPS to the nPORRST line of the Hercules. However, both a reset on that line and physically removing power set the same bit in the Hercules, so connecting to that line does not enable me to know that the TPS watchdog caused the reset.
So how can my application know that it was just reset by the TPS watchdog?
Thanks,
David
