Abstract

The data encryption system includes a first stage and a second stage data encryption engine in combination with a micro control system. The data encryption system is responsive to control signals from the micro control system. The first stage is comprised of an 8-bit bus input and output from the first stage to the second stage data encryption engine of 64-bits. The input bus of the first stage is gated to a plurality of 8-bit registers through a plurality of AND gates having a respective one of the AND gate inputs in communication with the 8-bit bus and output from the respective AND gate directed to a respective input of the respective 8-bit registers for selectively gating data from the 8-bit bus to respective ones of the 8-bit registers. A demultiplexer includes a plurality of inputs and a plurality of outputs, a respective output of the demultiplexer being in communication with the input of a respective one of the AND gates for selectively enabling a respective one of the AND gate in response to the state of the control signals.
