The use of parity bits is a common method of detecting errors in data transmission and storage. Before looking at the use of parity bits in RAID, let's look more ...

The 74HC and 74HCT280 are 9-bit odd/even parity generators or checkers. These devices are silicon-gate CMOS devices which are pin compatible with low power Schottky TTL (LSTTL) and comply with JEDEC ...

An error detection technique that tests the integrity of digital data in the computer. Parity checking adds an extra parity cell to each 8-bit byte of memory, thus ...

ECC adds multiple parity bits, though calculations are usually applied to complete words (typically 32 or 64 bits), not single bytes. Each ECC bit represents the parity of a different subset of the ...

I got into an argument with a colleague about RAID levels (specifically RAID5) and whether the redundancy was accomplished through parity or ECC. The standard sources all refer to the RAID5 array ...

Abstract: The disclosed parity stripping technique quickly and efficiently converts a multi-byte input stream having parity bits to an output data stream that contains the same data as the input ...

Not using a parity bit to check for errors. For example, an 8-N-1 setting in a communications program, which was widely used before the Web, means each character transmitted contains (8) eight bits, ...

It’s the easiest thing in the world — simple, straightforward serial data. It’s the fallback communication protocol for nearly every embedded system out there, and so it’s one that you really want to ...

I should add, I'm aware that there are (several) filesystems that do ECC/checksumming, but I'm really more interested in something that can store parity data in standard files. This seems to me to be ...
