7.4.1. About the Hash driver

7.4.1.1. Principles

The Hash cryptographic coprocessor provides a hardware implementation of various hash algorithms to support hash computation of input data, as well as HMAC variants of these algorithms. This device is an autonomous device, using a dedicated memory mapping. On STM32F4xx devices, the HASH device support the following hash algorithms:

• MD5
• SHA1
• SHA224 (with and without HMAC mode)
• SHA256 (with and without HMAC mode)
