CONFIGURABLE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT (IC) WITH CYCLIC REDUNDANCY CHECK (CRC) ARBITRATION

Abstract:

An integrated circuit (IC) includes: a storage having a storage interface and addressable bytes, the storage interface coupled to first and second sets of peripheral terminals; control circuitry having control circuitry inputs and control circuitry outputs, the control circuitry inputs coupled to the storage interface and configured to receive configuration bits provided by the storage responsive to a control circuitry update trigger, and the control circuitry outputs coupled to first and second sets of peripheral outputs; and a cyclic-redundancy check (CRC) engine coupled to the storage interface, the CRC engine configured to distinguish between purposeful updates to the data in the storage and bit errors in the data in the storage.
