Error Correction
The CD-ROM decoder handles data in the formats containing information relevant to error
correction, including the EDC, P parity, and Q parity. The CD-ROM decoder includes the
following functions for use in error correction.

(1) Syndrome Calculation
After the data of a sector in Mode 1 or Form 1 of Mode 2 has been input, the ECC is used in
correction if any error is detected (the result of syndrome calculation is non-zero). After
correction, the results of syndrome operation for the corrected data are output to bits ST_ECCP (P
parity) and ST_ECCQ (Q parity) in the CROMST6 register, respectively.

(2) ECC correction and EDC Checking
For CD-ROM format data that contains EDC, P-parity, and Q-parity fields, the CD-ROM decoder
performs EDC checking and ECC correction. Supported correction modes are P correction, Q
correction, PQ correction (P correction followed by Q correction), and QP correction (Q
correction followed by P correction). In PQ and QP correction modes, up to three iterations of
correction are possible (the number of iterations is limited by the playback speed).
performs EDC checking and ECC correction. Supported correction modes are P correction, Q
correction, PQ correction (P correction followed by Q correction), and QP correction (Q
correction followed by P correction). In PQ and QP correction modes, up to three iterations of
correction are possible (the number of iterations is limited by the playback speed).
The EDC check is performed twice, before and after correction.
The mode of ECC correction and EDC checking is specified by bits MD_DEC[2:0] in the
CROMCTL1 register. When the PQ or QP correction mode is selected, the number of iterations is
specified by bits MD_PQREP[1:0] in the CROMCTL1 register.

specified by bits MD_PQREP[1:0] in the CROMCTL1 register.
When the automatic mode/form detection function is in use, the sector mode determines whether
or not ECC correction and EDC checking can be performed. For sectors in Mode 0 and Mode 2
(non-XA), which include neither parity bits nor EDC, ECC correction and EDC checking are not
performed. For sectors in Form 2 of Mode 2, ECC correction is not performed.

(a) ECC Correction
When ECC correction is in use and an error in a sector is identified as non-correctable, the CD-
ROM decoder generates an IERR interrupt and sets the ST_ECCNG bit of the CROMST6 register
to 1. The CD-ROM detector also sets this bit to 1 on detecting a short sector.
