Does anyone know if Embedded SSL or TLS has ever been successfully developed for 8-bit micro's? If so, where can I obtain some details? Thanks. Malan
"where can I obtain some details?" Answering your question in a non-8051 and non-Keil way, http://www.rabbitsemiconductor.com/products/dc/DC9/modules.shtml#SSL
Thank you Dan I suspect that it is not practically feasible to implement SSL / TLS on 'standard' 8-bit micro's such as 8051 or 8052 since executing the computationally intensive encryption algorithms using 8-bit registers and a primitive mathematical core would make initial handshaking too slow and thus impractical. I'd be glad to hear if anybody disagrees… Malan
I see no reason that a "rabbit" which is 8 bits can do anything in a reasonable time that e.g. a SILabs f120 cannot do in a similar time. Erik
Hi Erik You may have a good point. I'm not familiar with either. I'll have a good look at their register architectures and instruction sets. Thank you Malan
