Fig. 1 — Parity Generator and Checker INTERACTIVE

Lo que aprenderás

  • Generate an even-parity bit with an XOR tree
  • Detect single-bit errors by comparing parity
  • See why XOR is the parity operation

Cómo funciona

An XOR tree combines the four data bits into an even-parity bit (high when an odd number of data bits are 1). The checker XORs the generated parity against a received parity bit; a mismatch lights the Error output, catching single-bit errors.
