Data coding method and corresponding data processing unit having a coding/decoding circuit

摘要

The method of coding data within a data processing unit includes a representation as twos-complement and a coded representation of the data. The coded representation is a semi-negated representation. A data processing unit includes a memory device connected bidirectionally to a data bus, itself connected to a processing architecture which includes at least one arithmetic-logic unit. Advantageously, the data processing unit includes at least one data coding/decoding block connected between the processing architecture and the data bus.
