Abstract
A CRC generator, a method for computing a CRC of a data packet, and an electronic system, such as a circuit board, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment the method is for computing the CRC of a data packet to be transmitted on a serial communications link having multiple lanes. In one embodiment, the CRC generator includes: (1) a CRC calculator configured to define a CRC calculation of a data packet in sequential order and perform parallelized computations, according to the sequential order and the multiple lanes, to generate sub-CRC values and (2) combination circuitry configured to combine the sub-CRC values to provide the CRC value for the packet.
