Reed Solomon (RS) codes providing an efficient capability for correcting burst errors have been widely used. Some work has already been done in developing VLSI decoders for RS codes. This paper proposes a new VLSI design of RS decoder using ASIP based on software ideas. It shortens the design time and enhances the reliability of VLSI. We have successfully used the method for the design of RS decoder (207, 187) in the ATSC-HDTV receiver chip.
