#143328 - Simple EEPROM checksumming |
Hiya,
I'm currently implementing routines into my application that save default values into a data eeprom. It works fine but I'd like to implement some sort of checksumming of the data. Are there any small and simple checksumming algorithms that are suitable for 8051 use? This means I want some byteoriented stuff without much shifting and it shouldn't take too long to compute. I have to checksum approx 40 bytes. My thoughts sofar are: * simple addition scheme without carry * XORing all bytes together I think a full CRC check is overkill here. Any ideas? cheers, Matthias |

| CRC8 instead of CR32 | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I am talking about CRC-16 not CRC-8 | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| how much data? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| approx 40-60 bytes | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I use 2 copies and a counter for that | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| Here's one method | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| another interesting scheme! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Try the Dallas 1-wire CRC | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| another good idea but... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I just meant the CRC | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
