TM4C129ENCPDT: Decryption of 2048-bit RSA payload

Mitchell

Part Number: TM4C129ENCPDT

Hi Team,

I'd like to get some clarification on the capabilities of the TM4C129ENCPDT. We are looking to use this to decrypt a 2048-bit RSA payload but have couple key questions:

1) Can this even be done? The datasheet indicates the AES is noted to only support up to a 256-bit key. Not sure if this is the max spec or if the part has the ability to go further?

2) If 2048-bit decryption is supported, what is an achievable decryption time? Is 15ms achievable?

Thanks,
Mitchell

    Hello Mitchell,

    We don't have any RSA examples or collateral. Apparently there may be support for it included within the WolfSSL 3rd party library: e2e.ti.com/.../1667143

    I am not sure if that would include support for 2048-bit, or what the decryption time would be. I also don't know enough about RSA to comment on if the whole process would need to be done in software or if the 256-bit AES module can be used to trim time down. If not, then the decryption would be executed without any hardware acceleration.

    Hi Mitchell,

    I circled back with Sai (from the post I linked) and he confirmed that RSA implementation would be software only and recommended that WolfSSL has a crypto library that includes RSA. That would be the best place to look for support for this.
