The Expert of IP Core & Embedded

SHA2 IP core supports SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512/224, and SHA-512/256 secure hash algorithms. The core is fully compliant with the FIPS PUB 180-4 (Federal Information Processing Standard) specification. Suitable for applications such as secure communication, password authentication, and blockchain data integrity.

SHA-256 IP is an optimized and efficient implementation of a secure hash algorithm SHA-256 specified in FIPS 180-4 standard. SHA256-IP can process 512-bit data blocks in just 65 clock cycles. Delivering 7.875Mbps throughput per 1MHz clock such as 1.575 Gbps throughput @ 200MHz.
