This is work in progress. I am not an expert on the topic by any means. Therefore, I have trouble finding and verifying information about common CRC algorithms. I am especially looking for reliable test vectors.

Implemented algorithms

CRC1
CRC16, CRC16-CCITT, CRC16-DNP, CRC16-Modbus, CRC16-QT, CRC16-USB, CRC16-XModem, CRC16-ZModem

Usage example

<?php

// Autoloading via Composer
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$crc16ccitt = new mermshaus\CRC\CRC16CCITT();

$crc16ccitt->update('Hello');
$crc16ccitt->update(' World!');

$checksum = $crc16ccitt->finish();

var_dump(bin2hex($checksum)); // string(4) "882a"

Testing

$ phpunit
