Atmel Company announce it CryptoCompanion slice offer stopper and play cryptography is suit imbedding the easy counterfeit system safely by owner, the firmware is stolen and destruction of the permission agreement.

Stopper this and play, indicate designer design unnecessary or test those cryptography algorithm while being convenient. The system of the victim become of perhaps the ones that forge and plan includes the printer and printer cartridge, there are beautiful batteries, STBs, the control panel of the video game, video game cartridge, PDA, GPS and having utensils of exclusive algorithms or any secret system.

Up to now, use very complicated microprocessor, spend up to 5 dollars every one, get the secret host computer algorithm and ordinary implementation of true security of key. Including the requirement for the special firmware or OS, their complexity of the experience of the engineer’s thorough cryptography and their high expenses have already hindered their adopting.

Less expenses, complexity
CryptoCompanion slice, when CryptoMemory and CryptoRF apparatus which is used as quilt Atmel uses, promise one is very safe for less than half the expenses of the complicated microprocessor, total solution on the basis of the hardware. AT88SC016 CryptoCompanion slice is that one is totally designed, realize host computer algorithm and the reliable shop and secret single host computer solution of slice of host computer of management expectancy secure communication. The weather combines the cryptography engine of the hardware, a cryptography quality hardware random number generator, with reaching the keys of 16 hosts to manage reliably. CryptoCompanion carries out the management of the hosts side including proving each other, the data are encrypted, the firmware verifies honestly, verify the code (MAC) with news Take the place of to secure communication. Use CryptoCompanion slice, for develop developer need how realize system of knowledge any of algorithm of cryptography use CryptoMemory or CryptoRF to finish safe application.

This can be used for setting up too in and up to 16 different memory departments of management on secret member’s apparatus, each can have different level read / write and enter with specific encryption and verification key and password. It is not accessible at all that CryptoMemory and CryptoRF encrypt key and algorithm, so, can’t be stolen or duplicated.

64 secret member’s engines
CryptoMemory apparatus it is said that one is that the only EEPROMs of the world imbed the engine of cryptography of the hardware, 4 64 who can not read prove the key and 4 64 meetings that can not be read encrypt the key. 64 secret member’s engines of CryptoMemory promise a much greater strength function, 48 key length that use usually, and fine 56 input Germany algorithm Sa that use extensively. It features pair of ability of proving, can use memory when getting, differentiate 256 Kbits to 16 each one among them of configurable department. 0 pieces of way communication interface are in T =In and it is 7816-3 of IS0s support 2 electric wire. 13.56 MHz CryptoRF apparatus of Atmel is power and safe RFID apparatus of the characteristic of imbedding cryptography the same as CryptoMemory in the hardware, and 64 Kbits remembered that is bringing until using comes.

AT88SC016 CryptoCompanion slice 8 SOIC of safety pin it wraps up to be to can offer and support one 2 electric wire of interfaces in standard. This uses a large amount of piece 25, 000 to be priced at 50 fen. CryptoMemory and CryptoRF apparatus produces the respect in the volume in many kinds of structures and memory density, and is fixed the price from 30 points and 75 points, part, in quantity of 25, 000.

AT91SAM7L128, and AT91SAM7L64 can offer LQFP wrap up and 1144 10 x10mm 0.8 ball of safety pin shoot BGA wrap up in 1128 safety pin. Fixing the price uses a large amount of piece 10, 000 to be lower than 4 dollars.

Atmel is one of the persons who exhibits those in the upcoming IIC - China 2008.
