+@ngdoc error
+@name $rootScope:infdig
+@fullName Infinite $digest Loop
+@description
+
+This error occurs when the application's model becomes unstable and each `$digest` cycle triggers a state change and subsequent `$digest` cycle.
+Angular detects this situation and prevents an infinite loop from causing the browser to become unresponsive.
+
+For example, the situation can occur by setting up a watch on a path and subsequently updating the same path when the value changes.
+
+```
+$scope.$watch('foo', function() {
+ $scope.foo = $scope.foo + 1;
+});
+```
+
+The maximum number of allowed iterations of the `$digest` cycle is controlled via TTL setting which can be configured via {@link ng.$rootScopeProvider $rootScopeProvider}.
