Key Features

Moderate resource requirements: The entire XIP1213B requires 9907 Adaptive Lookup Modules (ALMs) (Altera® Cyclone® 10 GX), and does not require any multipliers or DSPBlocks in a typical FPGA implementation.
Performance: XIP1213B achieves a throughput in the Gbps range3, for example 3.78 Gbps in AMD® Kintex® UltraScale+.
Standard Compliance: XIP1213B is fully compliant with the MACsec protocol as standardized in IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018 [2]. The cipher suite (GCM-AES-256 or GCM-AES-XPN-256) is fully compliant with the Advanced Encryption Algorithm (AES) standard [1], as well as with the Galois Counter Mode (GCM) standard [3].
Test Vector Compliance: XIP1213B passes the relevant test vectors speci€ed in Annex C of IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018 [2].
32-bit FIFO Interfaces ease the integration of XIP1213B with other FPGA logic and/or control software.
