CompanionCore IP Module - Athena Fast AES-GCM

Description: Fast Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) - Galois Counter Mode (GCM)

The Athena Fast AES-GCM core is the perfect solution for applications that require AES Galois Counter Mode for confidentiality and authentication. The Athena Fast AES-GCM core delivers up to 600 Mbps, and supports all AES key sizes. For minimum area implementations, support for unused features may be optimized away.

For smaller, lower throughput applications, please try the Athena Standard Performance AES-GCM.

Athena offers flexible licensing options, including single design, project, and site licenses. Pricing starts at as low as $6,000 for a single design license or $12,000 for a project license.
