Embodiment 1

[0100] figure 1 is a block diagram representing the data path portion of an exemplary Montegomery multiplier suitable for use in the first embodiment of the present invention. The Montgomery multiplier in this embodiment comprises: a multiplier-adder 1, input registers 2 to 5, a multiplexer 6 and two memories 7 and 8 (memory A and memory B).

[0101] Multiplier Adder 1 adds the input values ​​(r-bit length) of registers 2 and 5 to the product of the input values ​​(r-bit length) of registers 3 and 4, and obtains an output tmp having a 2r-bit length. i.e. input p from addition j sum c and multiplication input y j and x i get output tmp=p j +y j x i +c. The multiplier-adder 1 can consist of, for example, a well-known full adder FA and a half adder HA. exist figure 1 in, such as x i(0) Such a value represents the value applied to the variable x obtained by extracting the bits corresponding to the numbers in parentheses i value.

Embodiment 2

[0118] image 3 is a block diagram showing the data path portion of an exemplary Montegomery multiplier suitable for use in the second embodiment of the present invention. The arithmetic circuit in this embodiment is the same as in the first embodiment except that the memory 8 (memory B) is a single-port memory, ie the same port is used for both data reading and data writing. In this embodiment, since a one-port memory is used as the memory 8, the size of the memory is reduced so that a smaller circuit can be obtained.

Such as Figure 4 As shown in , until the i loop is terminated, the processing is the same as in the first embodiment. In the process of executing P=P-n, since a single-port memory is used as the memory 8 in this embodime...

Embodiment 3

[0121] Figure 5 is a block diagram showing the data path portion of an exemplary Montegomery multiplier suitable for use in the third embodiment of the present invention. The Montegomeri multiplier of this embodiment includes a multiplier adder 9, input registers 10 to 15 and three memories 16, 17 and 18 (memory A, memory B1 and memory B2).

[0122] Multiplier adder 9 increments the input value (r bit long register 11 (t register) and register 12 (n j , N register), register 13 (x i register) and register 14 (y j register) of the input value (r bit length), and the input value of register 10 (c register) (r+1 bit length), and register 15 (p j register) and provide as output tmp with a length of 2r+1 bits. That is, the multiplier-adder 9 has two multipliers, and from the corresponding p j , the addition input of c, corresponding to y j , x i The product of the input and corresponding to t, n j The product of the inputs obtains the output tmp = p j +y j x i +t·n j ....

Abstract

The present invention attempts to resolve a Montgomery multiplier bottleneck problem encountered during memory access, by using general-purpose memories having two ports or single port. Two memories 7 and 8 are provided, so that variables that are stored in memory and must be read for an operation can be recorded in different memories. Thereafter, during a reading stage corresponding to a pipeline process, certain of the variables are read from the memory 7 and are loaded in the register 5, while the other variables are read from the memory 8 and are loaded in the other registers.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an arithmetic circuit and an arithmetic method, in particular, to a preferred modular multiplication speed improvement for a public key cryptosystem. Background technique [0002] For information transfer, public key cryptography (asymmetric cryptography) is employed in order to maintain the confidentiality of information and for digital authentication purposes. Public key cryptography is a cryptographic system for information transmission, a cryptographic method for transmitting information using a pair of keys consisting of a public key and a secret key. The sender encrypts the plaintext using the recipient's public key, and when decoding the ciphertext, uses a secret key known only to the recipient. According to public key cryptography, since unlike common key cryptography (symmetric cryptography), there is no need for communicators to share and adopt a single common key, and since wide disc...
