In stock at distributor Mouser Electronics is the ECC204 secure authentication IC from Microchip Technology.

The ECC204 is a cryptographic authentication device with protected storage for private keys, certificates, symmetric keys, or user data. The hardware-based key storage solution supports a range of secure authentication applications, including ecosystem control, disposables and accessory authentication, symmetric authentication using HMAC keys, and disposable applications with select usage.

The device offers a robust set of authentication solutions.

It provides hardware support for asymmetric authentication, including a FIPS186-4 elliptic curve digital signature and NIST standard P-256 elliptic curve support. It also features a high-quality internal NIST SP 800-90A/B/C random number generator, supporting asymmetric key generation.

Hardware support for SHA-256 and HMAC features alongside the device’s field-programmable electrically erasable, programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) that includes a single ECC private key, single symmetric secret key, and 64-byte user memory. The ECC204 IC offers an extended industrial temperature range of -40℃ to +105℃.

This device is offered in a compact 8-pad UDFN, 8-lead SOIC, and 3-lead contact package options for design flexibility.

Support comes in the shape of the EV27Y72A 3-Lead Contact mikroBUS socket board. The socket board can be used with any microcontroller board that supports the MikroElektronika mikroBUS interface.

This modular design enables users to reuse the socket board in multiple prototypes and applications. The socket board provides engineers with an easy and affordable option to configure and test their devices before mass production.
