This study presents an 8-bit serialised architecture of SEED block cipher for constrained devices. The circuit utilises 356 FPGA slices and 447 1-bit registers flip-flops (FFs) in the BASYS3 board, operates with an 8-bit datapath and is aimed for use on area constraints devices. In order to keep the usage of hardware resources to a minimum but, at the same time, achieve a high level of security, the key generation process of SEED is implemented through an on-the-fly procedure. In addition, the necessary S-boxes are implemented using composite field arithmetic without using any block RAMs, resulting in a very compact implementation. The proposed architecture achieves a maximum frequency equal to 125 MHz with a total latency of 280 clock cycles and a throughput up to 57.1 Mbps for encryption or decryption.
