AES encrytion (ASIC)

Hey folks , i need ur opinion about something : To implement an AES decryption (CBC mode ) algorithm in ASIC , what would be the best way to do it ? i mean among these architectures which one do you choose and why :


  • Basic iterative architecture
  • Partial loop unrolling
  • full loop unrolling
  • Partia outer-round pipelining
  • Full outerround pipelining
  • Inner-round pipelining
  • Partial mixed innerand outerroundpipelining
  • Full mixed inner- and outer-round pipelining
  • other ...

How long is a piece of string?

I found the AES implementation on Opencores to be pretty good and easy to use, so perhaps you can save time by using it...
