Abstract

A platform-based SoC named as Firebird is presented in this paper, which is used for the applications of information security. Several design aspects, which includes the embedded 32-bit RISC CPU and AMBA controller, the reconfigurable and scalable public-key crypto-coprocessor, high-performance TRNG and several low-power schemes, make Firebird very efficient for the client-end applications of information security. Also the test results of this prototype chip indicate that Firebird can work with all these features efficiently, and has some obvious advantages over other designs in the literatures.
