A CMOS four-quadrant analog multiplier

A new circuit configuration for an MOS four-quadrant analog multiplier circuit is presented. It is based on the square-law characteristics of the MOS transistor. Two versions have been realized. The first has a linearity better than 0.14 percent for an output current swing of 36 percent of the supply current and a bandwidth from dc to 1 MHz. The second version has floating inputs, a linearity of 0.4 percent at an output current swing of 40 percent of the supply current and a bandwidth from dc to above 4.5 MHz

An Efficient hardware implementation of the tate pairing in characteristic three

DL systems with bilinear structure recently became an important base for cryptographic protocols such as identity-based encryption (IBE). Since the main computational task is the evaluation of the bilinear pairings over elliptic curves, known to be prohibitively expensive, efficient implementations are required to render them applicable in real life scenarios. We present an efficient accelerator for computing the Tate Pairing in characteristic 3, using the Modified Duursma-Lee algorithm. Our accelerator shows that it is possible to improve the area-time product by 12 times on FPGA, compared to estimated values from one of the best known hardware architecture [6] implemented on the same type of FPGA. Also the computation time is improved upto 16 times compared to software applications reported in [17]. In addition, we present the result of an ASIC implementation of the algorithm, which is the first hitherto

Efficient modular arithmetic units for low power cryptographic applications

The demand for high security in energy constrained devices such as mobiles and PDAs is growing rapidly. This leads to the need for efficient design of cryptographic algorithms which offer data integrity, authentication, non-repudiation and confidentiality of the encrypted data and communication channels. The public key cryptography is an ideal choice for data integrity, authentication and non-repudiation whereas the private key cryptography ensures the confidentiality of the data transmitted. The latter has an extremely high encryption speed but it has certain limitations which make it unsuitable for use in certain applications. Numerous public key cryptographic algorithms are available in the literature which comprise modular arithmetic modules such as modular addition, multiplication, inversion and exponentiation. Recently, numerous cryptographic algorithms have been proposed based on modular arithmetic which are scalable, do word based operations and efficient in various aspects. The modular arithmetic modules play a crucial role in the overall performance of the cryptographic processor. Hence, better results can be obtained by designing efficient arithmetic modules such as modular addition, multiplication, exponentiation and squaring. This thesis is organized into three papers, describes the efficient implementation of modular arithmetic units, application of these modules in International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA). Second paper describes the IDEA algorithm implementation using the existing techniques and using the proposed efficient modular units. The third paper describes the fault tolerant design of a modular unit which has online self-checking capability --Abstract, page iv

Design and Implementation of Hybrid Multiplier for DSP Applications

In recent decades, there has been a consistent reduction in feature sizes in integrated circuit (IC) technology, leading to the need for increased placement of functional circuits on each chip. When it comes to the design of digital circuits, there is a significant focus on hybrid logic. Hybrid logic is highly regarded due to its ability to consume less power while achieving higher efficiency. Hybrid logic circuits have similarities to complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) transistors, yet possess a reduced transistor count while offering enhanced performance and reliability capabilities. This study examines the modeling and implementation hybrid multiplier with of help of hybrid adder. The functionality of adder is determined with the help of hybrid logic producing XOR/XNOR functionalities in single circuit.    The proposed hybrid Multiplier, which incorporates a hybrid Adder, has been successfully designed and implemented using CMOS 45nm technology and Mentor Graphics software the hybrid transistor logic multiplier demonstrates a decrease in total delay of 60% compared to CMOS
