Abstract
An error correcting device includes a receiving circuit for receiving data in a unit of block, an error correcting circuit for detecting an error in the data received by the receiving circuit and correcting the error, a transmission circuit for transmitting the data whose error has been corrected by the error correcting circuit, and a storage device having two areas each having a storage capacity corresponding to at least one block of the data. The transmission circuit reads the data corrected by the error correcting circuit from one of the areas of the storage device, and simultaneously, the receiving circuit writes the received data into said one area of the storage device at an address where the transmission circuit has already read out the error-corrected data.
