In this paper, a dual-field elliptic curve cryptographic processor is proposed to support arbitrary curves within 576-bit in dual field. Besides, two heterogeneous function units are coupled with the processor for the parallel operations in finite field based on the analysis of the characteristics of elliptic curve cryptographic algorithms. To simplify the hardware complexity, the clustering technology is adopted in the processor. At last, a fast Montgomery modular division algorithm and its implementation is proposed based on the Kaliski's Montgomery modular inversion. Using UMC 90-nm CMOS 1P9M technology, the proposed processor occupied 0.86-mm2 can perform the scalar multiplication in 0.34ms in GF(p160) and 0.22ms in GF(2160), respectively. Compared to other elliptic curve cryptographic processors, our design is advantageous in hardware efficiency and speed moderation.
