Abstract

There are provided a low power SHA-1 hash algorithm apparatus having a low power structure and optimized to a trusted platform module (TPM) applied to a mobile trusted computing environment and a low power keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) encryption apparatus using the low power SHA-1 hash algorithm apparatus, the HMAC encryption apparatus including: a key padder padding key data for HMAC algorithm; an XOR operator XOR operating the padded key data and a padding constant; a data connector connecting a text to be encrypted, to data obtained by the XOR operating; a data padder padding the connected data; an SHA-1 hash algorithm part performing an SHA-1 hash algorithm on the padded data; a data selector selecting and applying one of a result of the SHA-1 hash algorithm and the text to be encrypted, to the data connector; and a controller controlling operations of the key padder, data connector, and data padder, a sequence of performing a hash algorithm of the SHA-1 hash algorithm part, and storing an operation result to read data required for performing an encryption operation and store data with memory.
