Abstract :
A 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) core targeted for high-performance security applications is fabricated in a 65nm CMOS technology. A novel charge-recovery logic family, called Bridge Boost Logic (BBL), is introduced in this design to achieve switching-independent energy dissipation for an intrinsic high resistance against Differential Power Analysis (DPA) attacks. Based on measurements, the AES core achieves a throughput of 16.90Gbps and power consumption of 98mW, exhibiting 720× higher DPA resistance and 30% lower power than its conventional CMOS counterpart at the same clock frequency.
