32 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
34 -- This package provides routines for computing a commonly used checksum
35 -- called CRC-32. This is a checksum based on treating the binary data
36 -- as a polynomial over a binary field, and the exact specifications of
37 -- the CRC-32 algorithm are as follows:
39 -- Name : "CRC-32"
40 -- Width : 32
41 -- Poly : 04C11DB7
42 -- Init : FFFFFFFF
43 -- RefIn : True
44 -- RefOut : True
45 -- XorOut : FFFFFFFF
46 -- Check : CBF43926
48 -- Note that this is the algorithm used by PKZip, Ethernet and FDDI.
50 -- For more information about this algorithm see:
