In the presented S-box, some improvements were made as follows. (1) Level-sensitive latches were inserted in data path to block the propagation Of the dynamic hazards, which lowered the power of data path circuit. (2) Operations of latches were controlled by latch controllers based on presented asynchronous sequence element: LC-element, which utilized static asymmetric C-element to construct a simple and power-efficient circuit structure. (3) Implementation of the data path circuit was a semi-custom standard-cell circuit on 0.25μm complementary mental oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process; and the full-custom design methodology was adopted in the handshake circuit design. Experimental results show that the resulting circuit achieves nearly 46% improvement with moderate area penalty ( 11.7% ) compared with the related composite field S-box in power performance. The presented S-box circuit can be a hardware intelli-gent property (IP) embedded in the targeted systems such as wireless sensor networks (WSN), smart-cards and radio frequency identification (RFID).展开更多

Since the S-Boxes consume much of the total AES circuit power, an efficient approach to reducing the AES power consumption consists in reducing the S-Boxes power consumption. Among various implementations of S-Boxes, the most energy-efficient one is the decoder-switchencoder (DSE) architecture. In this paper, we refine the DSE architecture and propose one faster, more compact S-Boxes architecture of lower power: an improved and full-balanced DSE architecture. This architecture achieves low power consumption of 68 μW at 10 MHz using 0.25 ktm 1.SV UMC CMOS technology. Compared with the original DSE S-Boxes, it further reduces the delay, gate count and power consumption by 8%, 14% and 10% respect/vely. At the sane time, simulation results show that the improved DSE S-Boxes has the best performance among various S-Boxes architectures in terms of power-area product and power-delay product, and it is optimal for implementing low power AES cryptography.展开更多
