Abstract
Method and system for protecting data in a PCI-Express device is provided. The method includes adding error correction code (ECC) to every byte of data that enters a PCI-Express Transaction Handler ('PTH') Module and is destined for a host system memory or destined to another device, before the data is aligned within the PTH module; verifying the ECC code for every byte of the data before the data leaves the PTH module; and generating the ECC code for a data block size, wherein the data block size depends on the destination of the data.
