I have seen also that PAR is an output only so it does look like it can only generate parity and not check it.
For this application, I can probably accept these limitations. But aside from limitations ... does it work? It doesn't look much maintained/documented, so I want to check if I am alone on that road, or if there are others to share comments/bug fixes with.

I've see that, but what remains after tying unused input to gnd, does not look much working (just tried few simulations). But I will continue to check ...
Thanks all. Mau.
