Bits 31:0 – IV[31:0] Initialization Vector

The four 32-bit Initialization Vector registers set the 128-bit Initialization Vector data block that is used by some modes of operation as an additional initial input.

AESB_IVR0 corresponds to the first word of the Initialization Vector, AESB_IVR3 to the last one.

These registers are write-only to prevent the Initialization Vector from being read by another application.

For CBC mode, the IV input value corresponds to the initialization vector.

For CTR mode, the IV input value corresponds to the initial counter value.

Note: These registers are not used in ECB mode and must not be written. For Automatic Bridge dedicated mode, the IV input value corresponds to the initial nonce.
