RS Decoder Fails When Number of Check Symbols and Symbols are Similar

Description

With the variable decoder, when the Number of check symbols and Symbols per codeword values are similar, for example, 5 and 6, respectively, the Avalon-ST interface on the source side fails and the sop and eop overlap.

This issue affects all Verilog HDL variable decoder designs.

The design fails simulation.

Resolution

To avoid this issue, create a VHDL design model and use the VHDL testbench.

This issue will be fixed in a future version of the Reed-Solomon Compiler.
