For CRC we have terms and definitions in 10 topics. The topics are Bluetooth, Cellular Networking, Health Insurance, Import Cars, Information Security, Magnetic Tapes, SCSI, Storage Media, Technology and United Nations Acronyms.

CRC (Bluetooth)

Cyclic Redundancy Check. This is a 16-bit code added to the packet to determine whether the payload is correct or not. CRC data payloads can be carried only be DM, DH or DV packets. The CRC code is generated by the CRC-CCITT polynomial 0x11021 (hex).

CRC (Cellular Networking)

Cyclic Redundancy Code (or check). Included in many digital protocols to check for errors in transmitted messages

CRC (Health Insurance)

See community rating by class.

CRC (Import Cars)

[1] CRC industries A chemical company providing chemicals for automotive and other industries

CRC (Information Security)

Cyclic Redundancy Code. A CRC is a type of checksum. A checksum algorithm takes a file (or other string of bytes) and calculates from it a few bytes (the checksum) that depend on the entire file. The idea is that, if anything in the file changes, the checksum will change. CRC checksums are usually used to detect random, uncorrelated changes in files.

CRC (Magnetic Tapes)

Cyclic Redundancy Check. A complex mathematical method used to check that the data written to tape is error-free.

CRC (SCSI)

Cyclic Redundancy Check
Cyclic Redundancy Check is a means of detecting errors that is much more effective than the simple parity check that SCSI has used for years. CRC detects all single bit errors, all two bit errors, all errors with an odd number of bit errors, and all burst errors up to 32-bits long. CRC uses a 32-bit polynomial checksum to test data integrity. A similar process is used in Fibre Channel, Ethernet and other buses.

CRC (Storage Media)

Acronym for cyclic redundancy check. An error detection code that is recorded within each sector and is used to see whether parts of a string of data are missing or erroneous.

CRC (Technology)

Acronym for cyclical (or cyclic) redundancy check. A procedure used in checking for errors in data transmission. CRC error checking uses a complex calculation to generate a number based on the data transmitted. The sending device performs the calculation before transmission and sends its result to the receiving device. The receiving device repeats the same calculation after transmission. If both devices obtain the same result, it is assumed that the transmission was error-free. The procedure is known as a redundancy check because each transmission includes not only data but extra (redundant) error-checking values. Communications protocols such as XMODEM and Kermit use cyclical redundancy checking.
