Abstract
An integrated circuit comprises forward error correction (FEC) decoder logic being coupled to memory and arranged to receive data, comprising application data, from a host application process. The FEC decoder logic performs error detection upon the received data. Logic is further arranged to transmit error free application data back to the host application process prior to performing error correction; and store in memory only application data in which errors are detected.
