SPIRIT1
Three registers are available to use the AES engine of SPIRIT1:
• AES_KEY_IN [15:0]: R/W type register (128-bit), used to provide the key to use
• AES_DATA_IN [15:0]: R/W type register (128-bit), used to provide the input to the AES
engine
• AES_DATA_OUT [15:0]: R type register (128-bit), used to retrieve the output of the
AES operation.
The core processes 128-bit data blocks using 128-bit keys.
The AES can be accessed in any of the SPIRIT1 operation modes.
To turn on the AES engine, the AES_ON bit in the ANA_FUNC_CONF[0] register must be
set.
Once the AES engine is on, it processes the operations according to the commands sent.
The SPIRIT1 engine provides 4 different operations:
1. Encryption using a given encryption key (AES Enc command). In this operation, the
MCU puts the encryption key into the AES_KEY_IN[15:0] register and the data to
encrypt into the AES_DATA_IN[15:0]. The MCU sends the AES Enc command and
when the AES_EOP (end of operation) is issued, the MCU can retrieve the data
encrypted from AES_DATA_OUT[15:0]
2. Decryption key derivation starting from an encryption key (AES Key command). In this
operation, the MCU puts the encryption key into AES_DATA_IN[15:0]. The MCU sends
the AES Key command and when the AES_EOP (end of operation) is issued, the MCU
can retrieve the decryption key from AES_DATA_OUT[15:0]
3. Data decryption using a decryption key (AES Dec command). In this operation, the
MCU puts the decryption key into the AES_KEY_IN[15:0] register and the data to
decrypt into AES_DATA_IN[15:0]. The MCU sends the AES Dec command and when
the AES_EOP (end of operation) is issued, the MCU can retrieve the data decrypted
from AES_DATA_OUT[15:0].
4. Data decryption using a decryption key (AES KeyDec command). In this operation, the
MCU puts the encryption key into the AES_KEY_IN[15:0] register and the data to
decrypt into AES_DATA_IN[15:0]. The MCU sends the AES KeyDec command and
when the AES_EOP (end of operation) is issued, the MCU can retrieve the data
decrypted from AES_DATA_OUT[15:0].

PA configuration
The PA output power level can be configured by programming the PA_POWER[8:0] register
bank. The user can store up to eight output levels to provide flexible PA power ramp-up and
ramp-down at the start and end of a frequency modulation transmission as well as ASK
modulation shaping.
The power levels of the ramp are controlled by 7-bit words (PA_LEVEL_x, x=0 − 7),
according to the following table:
