Hardware build: CRC calculation

CRC (cyclic redundancy check) involves some intimidating math. But it turns out that it can all be done with some fairly simple hardware. In this video, I build the hardware to compute and verify CRCs. Previous video on CRC theory is here: https://youtu.be/izG7qT0EpBw
