YOUR RESULT
Ready when you are.

Enter your values, then select Generate checksum.

How it works

CRC-32/ISO-HDLC: reflected polynomial 0xEDB88320, initial value 0xFFFFFFFF, final XOR 0xFFFFFFFF.

Input definitions

Text to checksum
Plain text; maximum 200,000 characters.

A worked example

Text to checksum
123456789
CBF43926

Assumptions & limits

UTF-8 text bytes; no normalization or trailing newline is added. Intended for accidental-corruption checking, not authentication or collision resistance.
