XIP1113H: AES256-GCM High-Speed IP Core

High-speed IP core implementing AES-256 in GCM mode of operation

AES Galois Counter Mode (GCM) is a popular Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) cipher and its example use cases include securing TLS traffic.

Easy integration with other FPGA logic, as the functionality of XIP1113H does not rely on any FPGA family specific features.

Features

  • Moderate resource requirements: The entire XIP1113H requires 49516 Lookup Tables (4LUTs) (Lattice ECP5), and does not require any multipliers, DSPBlocks or internal memory in a typical FPGA implementation.
  • Optimized Implementation utilizing unrolling, pipelining, optimized AES S-box design, and GMAC calculation based on pipelined Karatsuba multipliers enable extremely high performance.
  • Performance: XIP1113H achieves a throughput in the Gbps range, for example 15.92+ Gbps in Lattice ECP5.
  • Standard Compliance: XIP1113H is fully compliant with both the Advanced Encryption Algorithm (AES) standard FIPS-197 as well as with the Galois Counter Mode (GCM) standard SP 800-38D.
