It is crucial to design energy-efficient advanced encryption standard (AES) cryptography for low power embedded systems powered by limited battery. Since the S-Boxes consume much of the total AES circuit power, an efficient approach to reducing the AES power consumption consists in reducing the S-Boxes power consumption. Among various implementations of S-Boxes, the most energy-efficient one is the decoder-switch-encoder (DSE) architecture. In this paper, we refine the DSE architecture and propose one faster, more compact S-Boxes architecture of lower power: an improved and full-balanced DSE architecture. This architecture achieves low power consumption of 68 μW at 10 MHz using 0.25 μm 1.8V UMC CMOS technology. Compared with the original DSE S-Boxes, it further reduces the delay, gate count and power consumption by 8%, 14% and 10% respectively. At the sane time, simulation results show that the improved DSE S-Boxes has the best performance among various S-Boxes architectures in terms of power-area product and power-delay product, and it is optimal for implementing low power AES cryptography.
