Modular multiplier of public-key cryptography for smart cards

The size and speed of the modular multiplier hinders the implementation of public key cryptography RSA applications for smart cards. A VLSI implementation was developed for a 1 024 bit RSA modular multiplier using a modified Montgomery algorithm. The modular multiplier was composed of two parallel multipliers and two pipelined adders, which reduced its size and greatly increased its speed. The modular multiplier has been implemented in smart cards for digit signature authentication for public key cryptography RSA. Results showed that the modular mulitiplier takes 342 ms to encrypt a 1 024 bit message on average at a clock rate of 20 MHz and holds about 8 500 gate counts.
