7.3 Crypto MSS Mode (For PolarFire SoC FPGA Only)
(Ask a Question)When configured in MSS mode, the User Crypto block is totally disconnected from the fabric interface and connected directly to the MSS switch. In this mode:
- The Cryptoprocessor is clocked by the MSS PLL at a frequency of 200 MHz.
- The Cryptoprocessor is connected to MSS AXI switch through asynchronous AXI to AHB and AHB to AXI bridges. The Cryptoprocessor can be used by the MSS processors using CAL driver.
- The Cryptoprocessor control inputs (GO, PURGE, and so on) are directly controlled by MSS system register bits in normal operation.
