JAAVR: Introducing the Next Generation of Security-Enabled RFID Tags
Erich Wenger, Thomas Baier, Johannes Feichtner · 2012
JAAVR stands for Just Another AVR, is a clone of the popular ATmega128 microprocessor, and is used as the core component of a security-enabled RFID tag. First, we evaluate different hardware designs using JAAVR to communicate via ISO 14443A. Second, we implement AES, Gr{\o}stl and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) and present several new runtime and low-memory records. Third, we add those assembly-optimized implementations to our RFID platform and investigate their impact in chip area and power consumption. Our designs are fully synthesizable as ASIC and FPGA and were tested using a discrete analog front-end and a standard RFID reader.
