The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) provides robust encryption for data security applications. Originally chosen by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the late 1990s, AES became the standard for encryption, replacing the older DES system. Helion Technology was at the forefront of this shift, offering a variety of AES IP cores suitable for ASIC and FPGA technologies.
Helion's range of AES solutions can address different application needs from minimal area to high-speed data processing. This allows customization and scalability to fit specific encryption requirements. AES includes multiple operational modes, such as CBC, CTR, OFB, and more, enabling users to choose based on throughput and security priorities.
With core offerings that cover ultra-low gate count applications to high throughput scenarios, Helion's AES cores are designed to fit seamlessly into a wide range of systems. Furthermore, by embracing process nodes from leading foundry groups, these cores ensure efficient implementation in diverse commercial settings.
