(15)Explanation for Data Matrix c ECC type

Data Matrix contains a function to correct a code reading error using an error correction code (ECC) and restore normal data. Since there are several ECCs. ECC should be designated according to usage. The general correction ability is as follows. However, it may vary according to the error conditions.

ECC type	Error Correction Ability		Overhead by ECC
ECC0			0%
		Low
ECC50			25%
ECC80			33%
ECC100			50%
		High
ECC140			75%
ECC200			Approx. 30%

dFormat ID

Data Matrix can handle all codes including alphanumerics, symbols and Kanji. Since data compression rate varies according to codes, a code to be used is designated using the format ID.

Format ID	Code			Details
1	Numerics	0 to 9	space
2	Letters	A to Z	space
3	Alphanumerics, symbols	0 to 9	A to Z	space . , - /
4	Alphanumerics	0 to 9	A to Z	space
5	ASCII (7 bit)	00H to 7FH
6	ISO (8 bit)	00H to FFH (Kanji)
