Overview

The PKC Multi hardware accelerator is a secure connection engine that can be used to offload the compute intensive Public Key operations (Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange, Signature Generation and Verification), widely used for High-performance TLS Handshake.

It combines a load dispatcher and a configurable amount of instances of the Public Key Crypto Engine (SCZ_IP_PKC) benefiting from all features supported (i.e., RSA/DH/DHE and ECDSA/ECDH/ECDHE/X.25519/X.448 and more). The efficient dispatching to several dozens of SCZ_IP_PKC instances helps reach maximum system performance.

This IP is made of a core and optional modules aiming at connecting the core to standard interfaces (PCIe, DMA, AXI bus). In addition, device drivers have an asynchronous API (or non-blocking API) which is integrated in OpenSSL Async.

Implementation aspects

The PKC Multi hardware accelerator IP core is easily portable to ASIC and FPGA. It supports a wide range of applications on various technologies. The unique architecture offers a high level of scalability, enabling a trade-off between throughput, area and latency.
