A new Advanced Encryption Standard 128 intellectual property core provides a one-chip solution to protect sensitive data streams running over wireless and public networks.

When implemented in the QuickMIPS family of programmable SoC devices, a new Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 128 intellectual property core provides a one-chip solution to protect sensitive data streams running over wireless and public networks The QuickMIPS devices include on-chip Ethernet and PCI interfaces in addition to AES, providing platforms that allow the customer to spin out multiple variants efficiently through the reuse of software and hardware thereby improving time to market for subsequent designs and reducing development costs

Additionally, because AES is implemented in hardware, customers will achieve significant performance advantages over software implementations and benefit from the time-to-market advantages inherent in programmable logic solutions over ASIC products.

"Providing our customers with complete and secure system solutions that includes standard and application specific IP is critical.

A major concern for service providers is the ability to support secure communication channels over public networks", said Ian Ferguson, Vice President and General Manager of QuickMIPS Products.

The combination of the AES core and the on-chip industry-standard peripherals provide a proven, turnkey platform that delivers security and improves our customers' time to market.

The AES128 core delivers 300Mbit/s full duplex throughput which ensures that the part can support wire speed across the on-chip Ethernet ports.

The AES128 engine, which is currently being offered free of charge to QuickLogic's customers, is available immediately for the QL901M device and will be available at the end of this quarter for all of the Quicklogic products.
