The value 0x00 should not be used as an initial seed due to
the properties of the polynomial. The value 0x00 is always
guaranteed to force an immediate reset. The value of the LFSR
cannot be read; it must be tracked/generated in software.

Reserved.
Count up. Set by user for Timer3 to count up.
Cleared by user for Timer3 to count down by
default.
The following is an example of a sequence:
1. Enter initial seed, 0xAA, in T3CLRI before starting Timer3
in watchdog mode.
2. Enter 0xAA in T3CLRI; Timer3 is reloaded.
3. Enter 0x37 in T3CLRI; Timer3 is reloaded.
4. Enter 0x6E in T3CLRI; Timer3 is reloaded.
5. Enter 0x66. 0xDC was expected; the watchdog resets the chip.

Timer3 enable bit. Set by user to enable Timer3.
Cleared by user to disable Timer3 by default.
Timer3 mode. Set by user to operate in
periodic mode. Cleared by user to operate
in free-running mode. Default mode.

Watchdog mode enable bit. Set by user to
enable watchdog mode. Cleared by user to
disable watchdog mode by default.

Secure clear bit. Set by user to use the secure
clear option. Cleared by user to disable the
secure clear option by default.

The ADuC7026 and ADuC7027 are the only models in their
series that feature an external memory interface. The external
memory interface requires a larger number of pins. This is why
it is only available on larger pin count packages. The XMCFG
MMR must be set to 1 to use the external port.

Although 32-bit addresses are supported internally, only the
lower 16 bits of the address are on external pins.

Undefined. Equivalent to 00.

0
Watchdog IRQ option bit. Set by user to
produce an IRQ instead of a reset when
the watchdog reaches 0. Cleared by user to
disable the IRQ option.
The memory interface can address up to four 128 kB blocks of
asynchronous memory (SRAM or/and EEPROM).
The pins required for interfacing to an external memory are
shown in Table 193.

T3CLRI is an 8-bit register. Writing any value to this register on
successive occassions clears the Timer3 interrupt in normal
mode or resets a new timeout period in watchdog mode.

Secure Clear Bit (Watchdog Mode Only)
There are four external memory regions available, as described
in Table 194. Associated with each region are the MS[3:0] pins.
These signals allow access to the particular region of external
memory. The size of each memory region can be 128 kB maxi-
mum, 64 k × 16 or 128 k × 8. To access 128 k with an 8-bit
memory, an extra address line (A16) is provided (see the example
in Figure 82). The four regions are configured independently.
The secure clear bit is provided for a higher level of protection.
When set, a specific sequential value must be written to T3CLRI
to avoid a watchdog reset. The value is a sequence generated
by the 8-bit linear feedback shift register (LFSR) polynomial =
X8 + X6 + X5 + X + 1, as shown in Figure 81.

Figure 81. 8-Bit LFSR
The initial value or seed is written to T3CLRI before entering
watchdog mode. After entering watchdog mode, a write to
T3CLRI must match this expected value. If it matches, the LFSR
is advanced to the next state when the counter reload occurs. If
it fails to match the expected state, a reset is immediately
generated, even if the count has not yet expired.
Each external memory region can be controlled through three
MMRs: XMCFG, XMxCON, and XMxPAR.
