US Patent 10158485 Double affine mapped S-box hardware accelerator

A processing system includes a memory and a cryptographic accelerator module operatively coupled to the memory, the cryptographic accelerator module employed to implement a byte substitute operation by performing: a first mapped affine transformation of an input bit sequence to produce a first intermediate bit sequence, an inverse transformation of the first intermediate bit sequence to produce a second intermediate bit sequence, and a second mapped affine transformation of the second intermediate bit sequence to produce an output bit sequence.
