Abstract
A data conversion method, wherein a sequence of first r-bit datawords is divided into groups of x bits where x is the least common multiple of r and m, an arbitrary first dataword selected from x/r groups of first datawords is divided into x/m, an m-bit second dataword is formed by appending r/(x/m)-bit data, obtained by dividing the first dataword into x/m, to the LSB or MSB side of one or other of the non-divided first datawords, and the word-converted m-bit second dataword is converted to an n-bit codeword (m<n).
