AES Key Wrap Crypto Accelerator

Overview

The EIP-37 is the IP for accelerating the AES Key Wrap cipher algorithm (NIST-Key-Wrap & RFC3394). Designed for fast integration, low gate count and full transforms, the EP-37 accelerator provides a reliable and cost-effective embedded IP solution that is easy to integrate into SoCs that need high speed key wrap and (key) storage or key import and export systems

Key Features

  • Wide bus interface (128 bit data, 256 bit keys) or 32 bit register interface.
  • Key/KEK sizes: 128, 192 and 256 bits.
  • Includes key scheduling hardware.
  • Supported modes: Nist AES Key Wrap.
  • Memory interface for key, intermediate and result data storage up to 4096 bits (Maximum supported input data block size is 512 bytes)
  • Fully synchronous design.
