25.3.3. Watchdog Timer Clocks

Each watchdog timer is connected to the l4_sys_free_clk clock so that timer operation is not dependent on the phase-locked loops (PLLs) in the clock manager and so that it is always running. This independence allows recovery from software that inadvertently programs the PLLs in the clock manager incorrectly.
