Circuit for and method of enabling communication of cryptographic data

摘要

A circuit for enabling communication of cryptographic data in an integrated circuit is disclosed. The circuit comprises a first interface coupled to receive data having a first security level; a second interface coupled to receive data having a second security level; a cryptographic application; and a routing block coupled between the first and second interfaces and the cryptographic application, the routing block comprising configurable logic, wherein the routing block is configurable to selectively route the data having the first security level by way of the first interface and to route data having the second security level by way of the second interface. A method of enabling communication of cryptographic data in an integrated circuit is also disclosed.
