PQC Co-Proc IP Core
Brand: ElectraIC
EIC Product Code: EIP-30010002
PQC Co-Proc IP core is a co-processor that supports NIST’s selected Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards, ML-KEM (Kyber), ML-DSA (Dilithium), SLH-DSA (SPHINCS+), and FN-DSA (Falcon). This IP is fully compliant with the NIST’s published standards, and offers countermeasures against Side-Channel Analysis attacks.
