Abstract
A code error correcting and detecting apparatus includes a controller that repetitively processes error correction and detection of encoded CD-ROM data, thereby relieving a control microprocessor of a CD-ROM system of the burden associated with such repetitive processing. The apparatus includes an error correction circuit that performs code error correction on digital data, such as digital data read from a CD, using an error-correcting code (ECC). An error detection circuit performs error detection on the error-corrected digital data using an error-detecting code (EDC) and determines whether there is an error. A control circuit causes the error-correction circuit to repeat its error-correction processing in accordance with the detection of an error by the error detection circuit.
