A New Nanoelectronic Based Approach for Efficient VLSI Realization of SHA-512 Algorithm

摘要

This paper describes a preliminary performance evaluation of the implementation of Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-512) building blocks on a cell-FPGA-like hybrid CMOS/nanodevice architecture. Such circuits will combine a semiconductor- transistor (CMOS) stack and a two-level nanowire crossbar with nanoscale two-terminal nanodevices (programmable diodes) formed at each crosspoint. The new design is based on two-cell fabric CMOL FPGA which can be used for mapping any arbitrary circuit. In addition, using a custom set of design automation tools quasi-optimium gate placing, placing, routing and rerouting are provided for SHA-512 fundamental building blocks. It is shown that such a design results in a circuit which is defect tolerant, much faster and strikingly denser than its CMOS counterpart.
