Abstract

Processing a sequence of data frames in an error correction code (ECC) decoder is disclosed. Processing includes receiving a first data frame in the sequence of data frames, initiating processing of the first data frame through the ECC decoder, receiving a second data frame from the input sequence of data frames, and initiating processing of the second data frame through the ECC decoder before the first data frame is finished being processed through the ECC decoder. The ECC decoder includes one or more stages and at least one of the stages is coupled to a memory configured to store data associated with the at least one stage.
