What kind of cryptography backend does nrf52832 support?

[Robin]

Hi Nordic team,

"Cryptography library - nrf_crypto" section in SDK v17 online document explains pretty much crypto algorithms which are available on crypto-backend. It is well documented. However, I cannot find what crypto-backend is available on what device. In my case, I am using nrf52832. Could anyone advise me what crypto backend is available on nrf52832?

thanks

Hi

Please check out the nRF52832 Product Specification. Here you can see that the nRF52832 supports AES HW encryption with EasyDMA. More details on this in the Product Specificaiton.

The cryptography library specifically provides APIs to run cryptographic operations across all nRF52 family devices. Please note that the ARM Cryptocell310 subsystem is exclusive to the nRF52840 SoC in the nRF52 series.

Best regards,

Simon
