Instruction Set Extensions for Cryptographic Hash Functions on a Microcontroller Architecture

Andreas Peter Burg, Jeremy Hugues-Felix Constantin

In this paper, we investigate the benefits of instruction set extensions (ISEs) on a 16-bit microcontroller architecture for software implementations of cryptographic hash functions, using the example of the five SHA-3 final round candidates. We identify t ...

A 500 fW/bit 14 fJ/bit-access 4kb Standard-Cell Based Sub-VT Memory in 65nm CMOS

Andreas Peter Burg, Pascal Andreas Meinerzhagen, Oskar Andersson

Ultra-low power (ULP) biomedical implants and sensor nodes typically require small memories of a few kb, while previous work on reliable subthreshold (sub-Vt) memories targets several hundreds of kb. Standard-cell based memories (SCMs) are a straightforwar ...

A First Step Towards Automatic Application of Power Analysis Countermeasures

Paolo Ienne, Francesco Regazzoni, Philip Brisk, Ali Galip Bayrak

In cryptography, side channel attacks, such as power analysis, attempt to uncover secret information from the physical implementation of cryptosystems rather than exploiting weaknesses in the cryptographic algorithms themselves. The design and implementati ...
