Is There A Check16 Utility?

Does anyone have a check16 utility for doing a 16 bit checksum? If not, does anyone have source for Check8?
Thanks,

  • I was initially thinking I'd just add up 16 bit words for a stronger version of an 8 bit checksum. Using a similar utility to check8 (like Check16 maybe) write the checksum at the top of the 64 flash and at boot time have the 8051 verify it. I was hoping that if someone already had a something to do this then I wouldn't have to spend the time writing it.
