DESENCRYPT

Top  Previous  Next

Action

This statement of function uses the Xmega DES encryption engine to encrypt a block of data.

 

 

Syntax

targ = DESENCRYPT ( key, var , size)

 

 

Remarks

key

The name of a label that contains 16 bytes of key data. Or an array holding 16 bytes of key data.

var

A variable or array containing the data to be encrypted.

size

The number of bytes to encrypt. Encryption is done with blocks of 16 bytes. So the size should be a multiple of 16. If you supply only 14 bytes this is ok too, but the result will still be 16 bytes. It is important that your array is big enough to hold the result.

Without the full 16 byte result, you can not decrypt the data.

targ

An array of variable that will hold the result. Since the result will be at least 16 bytes long, this is only practical with arrays.

 

This function only works for Xmega chips that have an DES encryption unit.

Normal DES encryption is used. The DES encryption is faster than the AES but also weaker.

 

You can either use a label with a fixed key, or use a variable.

You should use the same key data for encryption and decryption.
