This thesis study presents a high speed VLSI implementation of the Rijndael Encryption Algorithm, which is selected to be the new Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Algorithm. Both the encryption and the decryption algorithms of Rijndael are implemented as a single ASIC. Although data size is fixed to 128 bits in the AES, our implementation supports all the data sizes of the original Rijndael Algorithm. The core is optimised for both area and speed. Using 149K gates in a 0.35-µ / m standard CMOS process, 132 MHz worst-case clock speed is achieved yielding 2.41 Gbit/s non-pipelined throughput in both encryption and decryption. iii
The design has a latency of 30 clock periods for key expansion that takes 228 ns for this implementation. A single encryption or decryption of a data block requires at most 44 clock periods. The area of the chip is 12.8 mm2 including the pads. 0.35-µ / m Standard Cell Libraries of the AMI Semiconductor Company are used in the implementation. The literature survey revealed that this implementation is the fastest published non-pipelined implementation for both encryption and decryption algorithms.
