SHA2 IP core is an optimized and efficient implementation of the SHA-2 cryptographic hash family, compliant with the FIPS 180-4 standard. The core supports SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512/224, and SHA-512/256 algorithms, enabling flexible and secure hashing for a wide range of applications. Designed for FPGA and embedded systems, it accelerates secure communication, password authentication, and blockchain data integrity while reducing CPU workload. When combined with Design Gateway’s networking and storage IPs, it enables the development of secure, high-performance, and efficient applications.
