  • Abstract
    A self-testing cryptographic coprocessing chip that provides high security for any data protected through its use is described. The design philosophy and chip architecture are examined. Detailed design and test methods and solutions are given, and it is explained why the chip´s design interacts well in networks and with secure hard disks.<>
