The PQR 512 RSA chip is a full CMOS hardware implementation primarily intended to support fast execution of the RSA(Rivest, Shamir and Adleman) public key cryptographic algorithm. The PQR 512 chip is designed to efficiently perform calculation in large "finite fields". Features : Low cost RSA processor, Small Size(QFP 100 package). Designed to allow easy integration in microprocessor based systems. Programmable key, modules and exponent length up to 513 bit. PQR 512 chips can be combined to support key lengths up to 1033 bit.  1, record 2, English, - programmable%20key

This term was coined in this book and attempts to show the strong similarity between hardware and software systems. A programmable piece of hardware would be a machine that could take on different configurations based on electrical and mechanical adjustments that tailor it to suit an application.  1, record 5, English, - programmable%20hardware

Designers... face a trade-off : At one extreme they can build fully programmable chips with no graphics-specific functions embedded in hardware. The buyer must implement the chip functions himself. At the other extreme the chips can be totally fixed-function, with no programming flexibility.  1, record 6, English, - programmable%20chip
