Description
The function crc_8() calculates a 8 bit CRC value of an input byte buffer based on the CRC algorithm as it is used in Sensirion SHTxx temperature and humidity sensors. The buffer length is provided as a parameter and the resulting CRC is returned as a return value by the function. The size of the buffer is limited to SIZE_MAX.
