1 Product Description
Hifn’s 820x is a high-performance, low-power, look-aside acceleration device that is ideal
for both storage and networking markets. The 820x provides hardware acceleration of
compression, encryption and hashing algorithms including GZIP, LZS, AES, 3DES, SHA,
MAC and some public key algorithms such as DH, RSA, ECC. The 820x has a PCIe 2.0 Gen1
compliant interface to communicate with the host system.
Figure 1-1 shows a typical 820x application example. The 820x can be employed on a half-
height PCIe card to accelerate encryption, hash and LZS/GZIP compression.
