LENGTH_B RSVD
SB_LENGTH_B Register Bit Descriptions
Bit Name Description
31:4 LENGTH_B Length B. The Length field is a 32-bit value that describes the number of bytes to be
encrypted or decrypted in the next operation using pointer set B. The lower four bits
must be written as zero and always read zero. This forces the data length to be an inte-
ger number of 16-byte blocks. This register should not be changed during an AES
encryption or decryption operation using the A pointer set (i.e., while STA is asserted,
SB Memory Offset 000h[0] = 1). This register can be modified during an operation using
the B pointer set (while STB is asserted, SB Memory Offset 004h[0] = 1).
3:0 RSVD Reserved. Set to 0.
SB Memory Offset 030h
Type WO

W_EY_0[31:0]
SB_WKEY_0 Bit Descriptions
Bit Name Description
31:0 WKEY_ 0 Writable Key 0. Bits [31:0] of the Writable Key for the Security Block. This register
should not be changed during an AES encryption or decryption operation. To prevent
one process from reading the key written by another process, this register is not read-
able.
