7 / 17 page 7 FN9201.0 February 1, 2005 It is recommended that device authentication be done once in a while to maximize its effectiveness. Before a new challenge code can be accepted by the device, the SESL register must be re-written again to ensure that the original seeds are re-loaded from the OTP ROM into the hash engine prior to performing the next authentication code calculation. Failure to follow the sequence will result is a bus error, causing the sBER flag to be set in the STAT register. SET-UP FOR DEVICE AUTHENTICATION SUPPORT To configure the host and the ISL6296 to support device authentication function, the pack manufacturer will need to select at least 2 sets of 32-bit secret codes. For greater security, a third set of 32-bit secret may be used. The FlexiHash™ engine requires two sets of 32-bit secrets for use in its hash calculation: the first set to define its hash function, and the second set to initialize its seed for hash calculation. These two sets can be selected from the same secret location. The chosen secret codes are to be kept by the pack manufacturer and maintained at utmost confidentiality. After the secrets have been determined, they are written into the device’s OTP ROM. After verification that the codes have been written in correctly, the relevant secrets lock-out bits at ROM address location 0-00 should be set. Once set, the lock-out bits can no longer be cleared. Thereafter, read/write access to the secret information will no longer be possible, and the secret codes are made available only to the FlexiHash™ engine for generation of authentication code based on a challenge code input from the host. On the host side, the same secret codes will need to be kept, and the same FlexiHash™ engine will have to be implemented in firmware. Refer to the application note AN1166 for detailed information of firmware implementation. It is important that the secret codes be stored scrambled in the host’s non-volatile memory so that the secret information cannot be easily revealed by monitoring signal transfer on the host PCB. THE HASH ENGINE The hash engine consists of 4 separate programmable 8-bit CRC calculators. Two sets of 32-bit secret codes are use by the hash engine for authentication code generation. The first set is used to define the CRC polynomial as well as the input selection for each of the CRC calculators. The second is used as initial seeds for the CRC calculations. Outputs of the 4 CRC calculators are logically combined to produce the 8- bit output of the overall FlexiHash™ engine. Block diagram of the FlexiHash engine is illustrated in Figure 7. More detailed description on the hash engine can be found in the application note AN1166. FIGURE 5.
