A low-cost multi-purpose experimental FPGA board for cryptography applications
Matěj Bartík, Jiří Buček · 2016
This paper describes the evaluation of available experimental boards, the comparison of their supported set of experiments and other aspects. The second part of this evaluation is focused on the design process of the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) for an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) based cryptography environment suitable for evaluating the latest trends in the IC (Integrated Circuit) security like Side-Channel Attacks (SCA) or Physically Unclonable Function (PUF). It leads to many criteria affecting the design process and of course, the suitability for evaluating and measuring results of the attacks and their countermeasures. The developed system should be open, versatile and unrestricted by the U.S. law [1].
