ASCON

A Lightweight Cryptographic Suite for AEAD and Hashing

Product code: XIP2201B

This IP Core from Xiphera is an Intellectual Property (IP) core for ASCON authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD) and hashing. It supports three variants of AEAD as well as two variants of hashing and extendable output functions (XOF). Notably, it provides three different cryptographic primitives all in one IP core. ASCON was selected by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to be standardized as the lightweight cryptographic algorithm.

This document details FPGA and ASIC resource requirements and performance for the default configuration, including instantiation parameters, supported features, and the selected bus interface.
