The AT98SC008CT is a fully integrated secure solution (Hardware and Firmware) designed for embedded systems (Servers/Routers, Peripherals, Set Top Boxes, PDAs, etc.). This secure chip has been designed to serve anti-cloning, access control and hardware protection applications. It provides an embedded crypto application allowing a strong authentication, digital signature, encryption, message digest and secure storage of user data (keys, etc.). The AT98SC008CT includes a hardware Triple DES supporting symmetric-key operations and a 32-bit crypto accelerator for public-key operations (RSA and Elliptic Curves signature algorithms). The chip prises also a hardware Random Number Generator used to generate on-chip public keys and challenges during authentication process. munication with the chip occurs through a SPI interface running up to 2 Mbps (UART interface will be implemented in the future). In addition to the crypto application, the chip...
