Cryptocell for pca10040

[YASH]

Hi All,

I am new here, i wanted to know if i can perform encryption algorithm using pca10040. Do we have cryptocell on nrf52832-dk?

Thanks in advance.

PCA10040 is name of the board (nRF52 DK) while CryptoCell must be integrated into some ARM Cortex chip. So the questions stays "Is nRF52840 (which is the only Nordic product supporting ARM CC) on PCA10040 dev kit?" and the answer is NO, for that you need PCA10056 aka "nRF52840 PDK" (aka Preview Dev Kit because nRF52840 wasn't released yet so the only thing you can get is engineering sample therefore only preview DK and only preliminary objective product specification).

Btw. you can indeed perform certain "encryption algorithms" without accelerated HW security or only with limited acceleration, but indeed there will be performance hit.
