Overview

Implementation of the new WPAN security standard (802.15.3) requires the NIST standard AES cipher in CTR and CBC modes (a.k.a. CCM) for encryption and message authentication. The CCM3 AES core is tuned for 802.15.3 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.

Key features

  • Small size: From 9,500 ASIC gates at 802.15.3 data Speeds.
