Abstract
A method of transferring error correcting code has the steps of receiving a first data stream in a data processing system, generating a second data stream, and generating a correctable error signal. Initially, the data processing system outputs the first data stream. Later, the data processing system may select the second data stream to output responsive to a first predetermined transition of the correctable error signal. The second data stream and the correctable error signal are generated from the first data stream pursuant to an error correcting code protocol. The disclosed method permits high speed pipelined data processor operation.
