Checksum calculation method
Calculate the checksum (CC) in the above example.
Convert each character into the ASCII code as shown below, and express the
result as 8-bit binary numbers.
Calculate the “Exclusive-OR” of the binary numbers of each bit.
Convert the calculated hexadecimal number into an ASCII code in two digits. The
result obtained is the checksum.
Therefore, the checksum for the above example is “cc =70 (37h 30h).
Example
• Exclusive OR calculation formula
Calculate the numbers of each bit, referring to the following formula:
0 + 0 = 0
0 + 1 = 1
1 + 0 = 1
1 + 1 = 0
* + : Operator of Exclusive OR
• Conversion from hexadecimal number into binary number
To convert ASCII codes into binary numbers, refer to the following table.
A ➔ 41h ➔ 0100 0001
B ➔ 42h ➔ 0100 0010
C ➔ 43h ➔ 0100 0011
1 ➔ 31h ➔ 0011 0001
2 ➔ 32h ➔ 0011 0010
3 ➔ 33h ➔ 0011 0011
+
0111 0000 70h
* Based on the “Exclusive OR” logic,
when an odd number of “1”s are
present, the calculation result is “1”,
and when an even number of “1”s
are present, the calculation result is
“0”.
