Title:
Atomic-AES v2.0
Authors: Subhadeep Banik, Andrey Bogdanov, Francesco Regazzoni
Abstract:Very recently, the {\sf Atomic AES} architecture that provides dual functionality of the AES encryption and decryption module was proposed. It was surprisingly compact and occupied only around 2605 GE of silicon area and took 226 cycles for both the encryption and decryption operations. In this work we further optimize the above architecture to provide the dual encryption/decryption functionality in only 2060 GE and latency of 246/326 cycles for the encryption and decryption operations respectively. We take advantage of clock gating techniques to achieve Shiftrow and Inverse Shiftrow operations in 3 cycles instead of 1. This helps us replace many of the scan flip-flops in the design with ordinary flip-flops. Furthermore we take advantage of the fact that the Inverse Mixcolumn matrix in AES is the cube of the forward Mixcolumn matrix. Thus by executing the forward Mixcolumn operation three times over the state, one can achieve the functionality of Inverse Mixcolumn. This saves some more gate area as one is no longer required to have a combined implementation of the Forward and Inverse Mixcolumn circuit.
