Because the 5370 and 5380 controllers have 32-bit data integrity, this only
applies to data structures larger than 32 bits. If word-level integrity is your
primary concern, the 32-bit data integrity does not impact your data use.
Good programming practice dictates the use of two unique words at the
beginning and the end of data. The controller validates the words to assure the
entire structure has data integrity. We recommend that the handshake data is
changed and the application code validates it every transaction before the
controller application code or higher-level system reading controller data acts
on it.
