BCM5802

Description

The BCM5802 Security Processor integrates Broadcom's IPSec engine (DES, 3DES, HMAC-SHA-1, HMAC-MD5), public key processor, true random number generator, PCI interface and context buffer memory onto a single chip. The BCM5802 Security Processor is an ideal solution for DSL modems, VPN-enabled networking products such as Small Office/Home Office(SOHO) routers, gateways and VPN appliances.

The BCM5802 combines performance and cost optimization for applications requiring hardware assist for MIPS intensive IPSec and IKE processing. Accelerating bulk cryptographic functions (DES, 3DES, SHA-1 and MD5) and public key operations, the BCM5802 includes extensive hardware support for processing intensive public key operations and minimizes the user software required for IKE and SSL/TLS key negotiations.
