Modular inversion with large integers and modulus is a fundamental operation in many public-key cryptosystems. Extended Euclidean algorithm (XGCD) is an extension of Euclidean algorithm (GCD) used to compute the modular multiplicative inverse of two coprime numbers. In this paper, we propose a Frequency Analysis study of 32-bit modular divider based on extended-GCD algorithm targeting different chips of field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The experimental results showed that the design recorded the best performance results when implemented using Kintex7 (xc7k70t-2-fbg676) FPGA kit with a minimum delay period of 50.63 ns and maximum operating frequency of 19.5 MHz. Therefore, the proposed work can be embedded with many FPGA based cryptographic applications.
