About CRC Algorithm

Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is a robust error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to raw data. Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents.

On retrieval, the calculation is repeated and, in the event the check values do not match, corrective action can be taken against data corruption. CRC is designed to be easy to implement in binary hardware, easy to analyze mathematically, and particularly good at detecting common errors caused by noise in transmission channels.

Supported CRC Profiles

This tool implements a wide range of standard CRC algorithms used in industrial and network protocols. Each variant is defined by its polynomial, initial value, XOR output, and reflection properties.
