The SHA-3 – secure hash algorithms – crypto engine is a hardware accelerator for cryptographic hashing functions. It is an area efficient and high throughput design and compliant to NIST's FIPS 202 standard. Additionally it supports all SHA-3 hash functions – SHA-3-224, SHA-3-256, SHA-3-384 and SHA-3-512 – as well as extendable output functions (XOF) – SHAKE-128 and SHAKE-256.
