That is terrific news, thank you! With that, I think we can actually say the Alpha is operational. Some things remain to be tested, but nothing major I think. The only ones I can think of is actually * to prove that the ring oscillator entropy source works in this FPGA too (again showing my ignorance about FPGAs I'm sure) * verify that the access to the MKM works from the FPGA side too * verify some of the protection jumpers works as intended /Fredrik _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@cryptech.is https://lists.cryptech.is/listinfo/tech
