The CLP-45: Configurable AES Core is a security engine that supports the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) which is in widespread use in standards such as 802.11i, LTE-Advanced, WiMAX, SSL/TLS/DTLS, IPsec SRTP, Suite B and many other applications. This diversity of applications generates different performance requirements, modes of operation and key size selection for each target application.
The CLP-45 is highly configurable and it allows designers to select a core that is optimized for their target requirements in both features and gate count. The core is proven in multiple tape-outs ranging down to 40 nm and is fully verified under the NIST CAVP (Crypto Algorithm Validation Program).
It also integrates seamlessly in ARM-based SOCs and enables designers to efficiently balance: power, performance, and silicon area.
