ABSTRACT:
Methods, circuits, architectures, software and systems for error detection in transmitted data. The method generally includes receiving data and non-data, the data including fixed length data portions, removing non-data; and if the data includes a remainder, adding a zero-pad vector to generate a zero-padded data portion, then checking the data and zero-padded data portions for a transmission error. The circuit generally includes a circuit to detect non-data; a circuit configured to replace non-data with a zero-pad vector; and a circuit to detect a transmission error in data and zero-padded data portions of information, and combine the zero-pad vector with a remaining data portion to form the zero-padded data portion. The present invention enables a single error detection circuit to detect errors, thereby reducing chip area, increasing efficiency, and reducing power consumption.
