Terafire^® T5200

Public Key Cryptography Microprocessor

From the world leader in high performance public key cryptography cores comes the T5200 series. The T5200 series is a fast, efficient public key cryptography solution with several size and performance options that are just right for your application. Athena’s patented arithmetic technology delivers the performance your solution needs - low latency and high throughput, in an area efficient package.

The T5200 implements Athena’s proprietary public key instruction set architecture, which allows T5200s to perform virtually any public key operation, including the myriad of elliptic curve cryptography algorithms, and easily accommodate new standards with on-the-fly programmability. Multiple models are available, optimized for operations up to 512, 1024, or more bits, with the maximum operation size for any implementation determined by its memory size.
