Description
The General CRC Syndrome Detector HDL Optimized block performs a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) on data and compares the resulting checksum with the appended checksum. The General CRC Syndrome Detector HDL Optimized block processing is optimized for HDL code generation. If the two checksums do not match, the block reports an error. Instead of processing an entire frame at once, the block accepts and returns a data sample stream with accompanying control signals. The control signals indicate the validity of the samples and the boundaries of the frame. To achieve higher throughput, the block accepts vector data up to the CRC length and implements a parallel architecture.
Examples
Ports
Input
dataIn — Input data
scalar | vector
Input data, specified as one of these options.
Scalar – Specify an integer representing several bits. For this case, the block supports an unsigned integer (
uint8
,uint16
, oruint32
) orfixdt(0,N,0)
data type.Vector – Specify a vector of binary values. For this case, the block supports a
double
orBoolean
data type.
The data width must be less than or equal to the CRC length, and the CRC length must be divisible by the data width. For CRC-CCITT/CRC-16, the valid data widths are 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1.
Example: The uint8
vector input [0 0 0 1 0 0 1
1]
is equivalent to 19
.

Parameters
Polynomial — Generator polynomial
[1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1]
(default) | binary vector
Specify the generator polynomial as a binary vector with coefficients in descending order of powers. The vector length is equal to the degree of the polynomial plus 1.
Initial state — Initial conditions of shift register
0
(default) | binary scalar | binary vector
Specify initial conditions of the internal shift register as a binary, double-precision, or single-precision scalar or vector. For vector inputs, the length of the initial state must be equal to the degree of the generator polynomial.
Direct method — Method of calculating checksum
off
(default) | on
Specify the method of calculating checksum as a Boolean scalar.
Select this parameter to use the direct algorithm for CRC checksum calculations.
Clear this parameter to use the nondirect algorithm for CRC checksum calculations.
To learn about the direct and non-direct algorithms, see Cyclic Redundancy Check Codes.
Reflect input — Input byte order
off
(default) | on
Specify the input byte order.
Select this parameter for the block to flip each input byte before it enters the shift register.
Clear this parameter for the block to pass the message data to the shift register unchanged.
The input data width must be a multiple of 8.
Reflect CRC checksum — Checksum byte order
off
(default) | on
Specify the checksum byte order.
Select this parameter for the block to flip each checksum byte before passing it to the final XOR stage.
Clear this parameter for the block to pass the checksum byte to the final XOR stage unchanged.
The input data width must be a multiple of 8.
Final XOR value — Checksum
0
(default) | binary scalar | binary vector
Specify the checksum as a binary, double-precision, or single-precision data type scalar or vector. The block performs XOR operation on the CRC checksum with this value before appending it to the input data.
If you specify a vector input, the vector length must be equal to the degree of the generator polynomial.
Algorithms
When you use vector or integer input, the block implements a parallel CRC algorithm [1].
To provide high throughput for modern communications systems, the block implements the CRC algorithm with a parallel architecture. This architecture recursively calculates M bits of a CRC checksum for each W input bits. At the end of the frame, the final checksum result is appended to the message. For a polynomial length of M, the recursive checksum calculation for W bits in parallel is
FW is an M-by-M matrix that selects elements of the current state for the polynomial calculation with the new input bits. D is an M-element vector that provides the new input bits, ordered in relation to the generator polynomial and padded with zeros. The block implements the (×) with logical AND and (+) with logical XOR.
Timing Diagram
This waveform shows streaming data and the accompanying control signals for a CRC16 with 8-bit binary vector input. The input frames are contiguous. The output frames include space between them because the detector block removes the checksum word.
This waveform diagram shows continuous input data. Non-continuous data is also supported.
Initial Delay
The General CRC Syndrome Detector HDL Optimized block introduces a latency on the output. This latency can be computed with the following equation, assuming the input data is continuous:
initialdelay = 3 * (CRC length/input data width) + 2.
Performance
The performance of the synthesized HDL code varies with your target and synthesis options. The generated HDL code is targeted to the Xilinx® Zynq® 7000 SoC ZC706 Evaluation Kit.
