mbedTLS Crypto acceleration for CAT1A, CAT1B and CAT1C MCUs

What's Included?

Please refer to the README.md for a complete description of the CAT1A, CAT1B and CAT1C acceleration for mbedTLS library. New in this release:

  • Added AES & ECDSA Verify acceleration for CAT1B MCU.
  • Added Hardware Entropy acceleration for CAT1A, CAT1B & CAT1C MCUs.

Limitations

Currently Cypress CAT1A and CAT1C acceleration doesn't support:

  • RSA
  • ECP NIST-B curves
  • ECP NIST-K curves
  • ECP 25519 curve
  • Montgomery Curve for ECDH
  • CHACHA20
  • SHA3
  • POLY1305

Currently Cypress CAT1B acceleration doesn't support:

  • RSA
  • ECC curves, ECDSA (Sign, Verify of curves P192R1, P224R1 & P521R1), ECDH
  • AES

Supported Software and Tools

This version of the CAT1A, CAT1B and CAT1C acceleration for mbedTLS library was validated for compatibility with the following Software and Tools:

Software and Tools Version
