A single-bit error occurs when only 1 bit of a data unit such as a byte flips from 1 to 0 or vice versa, while a burst error has 2 or more bits flipping. A burst error does not necessarily mean consecutive bits are affected, and the number of erroneous bits depends on data rate and duration of noise corrupting the transmission.

- 5. The term single-bit error means that only 1 bit of a given data unit (such as a byte, character, or packet) is changed from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1.
- 7. The term burst error means that 2 or more bits in the data unit have changed from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1. ………………………. Note that a burst error does not necessarily mean that the errors occur in consecutive bits.
- 8. The number of bits affected depends on the data rate and duration of noise.
