Actel has released new secure solutions to the marketplace. The new advanced encryption standard (AES) and data encryption standard (DES) intellectual property cores are optimised for Actel's nonvolatile Axcelerator, ProASIC, ProASICPLUS, RTSX-S and SX-A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) architectures.
Through Actel and its partners, Amphion Semiconductor and Helion Technology, customers now have access to design services and a range of encryption cores certified by the NIST that support AES, DES and triple DES (3DES) algorithms. They come in a wide variety of configurations offering users high-performance data encryption for wireless and wire-line communications.
"To safeguard against reverse engineering, cloning and overbuilding, Actel's nonvolatile antifuse- and flash-based FPGA architectures offer exceptional levels of design security protection. Often, our customers are also interested in securing and authenticating their data streams," stated Dr. Yankin Tanurhan, senior director, IP solutions at Actel.
"It is quite conceivable that every mobile communicator, server and Internet-enabled appliance in the worldwide communications infrastructure will embed high-performance encryption technology in some form or other," said Dr JG Doherty, president and CEO at Amphion. "Coupled with the inherent design security of Actel's FPGAs, these AES, DES and triple DES solutions are ideal for applications that require maximum levels of data privacy."
The new CoreDES and Core3DES IP cores each include encryption and decryption capabilities and supports 56-bit and 168-bit keys, respectively. The AES encryption and decryption cores are available in standard, compact, high-speed and ultra high-speed versions, enabling customers to choose an implementation that best fits their specific application. Designed to operate in either DES or 3DES mode, four DES/3DES solutions are available - ultra compact, compact, high speed and ultra high speed.
