MBOA MAC AES Core

Overview

Implementation of the new WPAN security standard for MBOA MAC requires the NIST standard AES cipher in CTR and CBC modes (a.k.a. CCM) for encryption and message authentication. The CCM3M AES core is tuned for MBOA MAC applications and as such requires much smaller gate count than a full implementation. The core contains the base AES core AES1 and is available for immediate licensing.

The design is fully synchronous and available in both source and netlist form.
