# W7500P brown-out detection

## Question

Asked by redkit redkit on 2017-06-02 in MCU & Boards.

Hi,
I’m using W7500P on a project. Soon we are going to imigrate to W7500.
But before that, i need to solve some isues.
Do these processors have brown-out detection? If so, what is the level?

Hello,

W7500 and W7500P haven’t brown-out detection. Instead theese processors have WDT(watchdog).

The watchdog applies a reset to a system in the event of a software failure to provide a way
to recover from software crashes. Users can enable or disable the watchdog unit as required.

Thankyou
