Abstract:

Despite a wealth of research regarding high-speed software and
high-speed FPGA implementation of ECC since the mid 1990s, providing
truly high-performance ECC on readily available (i.e., non-ASIC)
platforms remains an open challenge. This holds especially for ECC over
prime fields, which are often preferred over binary fields due to
standards in Europe and the US, and a somewhat clearer patent situation.
We present a new architecture for an FPGA-based high performance ECC
implementation over prime fields. Our architecture makes intensive use
of the DSP blocks in modern FPGAs, which are embedded arithmetic units
actually intended to accelerate digital signal processing algorithms. We
describe a novel parallel architecture and algorithms for performing ECC
arithmetic and describe the actual implementation of standard compliant
ECC based on the NIST primes P-224 and P-256.
