Enhanced cyclical redundancy check circuit based on galois-field arithmetic

摘要

Methods and apparatus related to enhanced Cyclical Redundancy Check (CRC) circuit based on Galois-Field arithmetic are described. In one embodiment, a plurality of exclusive OR logic include first exclusive OR logic and second exclusive OR logic. First Galois Field multiplier logic multiplies a first output from the first exclusive OR logic and a first portion of a plurality of portions of the input data. Second Galois Field multiplier logic multiplies a second output from the second exclusive OR logic and a second portion of the plurality of portions of the input data. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
