RC5 FPGA Implementation
by Raj on Dec.22, 2008, under FPGA
Hi All,
So one of the pretty cool projects I worked on this semester was implementing RC5 encryption and decryption for a Xilinx Spartan 3. This was my first FPGA project. It opened my eyes to the great application of these incredible pieces of hardware. The speedup one can attain moving tasks from software into hardware is astonishing (Check this out). I will soon start other FPGA projects, hopefully geared towards another security application.
