| Hi,  Can anyone comment about 
the performance of the AES core in opencores.org . The document attached says it 
takes only 12 clock cycles for encrypt and decrypt. All commercial IP cores 
(Actel, Cast) uses 40-44 clocks for a similar 
implementation. . It seems like this free 
implementation uses fully asynchronous blocks. Is it safe to use asynchronous 
logic for the implementation.... Eagerly waiting for valuable 
comments. Thanks Deepu John. |
