Level 1: Watchdog Timeout Event

Cause

A watchdog timer is a type of timer used in both hardware and software to detect whether a system or device has stopped responding or functioning properly. If the watchdog timer determines that the system is no longer operating as intended, it can trigger a recovery mechanism, such as restarting the system or initiating a controller reset.
