you can turn the watchdog on the cpld off by

writing 0x05 to 0x23C00000, then 0x00 to 0x23800000.

But if you system hangs you don't have the benefit of the watchdog rebooting 
it for you.

-Curtis.


#define TS7200_WATCHDOG_CTRL    0x23800000      // read/write
// must feed watchdog less than 30uSecs before writing this reg
//      val 0x00 = watchdog disabled
//      val 0x01 = 250 mSec watchdog reset counter
//      val 0x02 = 500 mSec watchdog reset counter
//      val 0x03 = 1000 mSec watchdog reset counter
//      val 0x04 = reserved
//      val 0x05 = 2000 mSec watchdog reset counter
//      val 0x06 = 4000 mSec watchdog reset counter
//      val 0x07 = 8000 mSec watchdog reset counter

#define TS7200_WATCHDOG_FEED    0x23C00000      // write only
//      val 0x05 = feed the watchdog to restart the reset counter
//      bit 2 = pulses at 32kHz (I think)
