Abstract
An encryption/decryption apparatus and a power analysis protecting method thereof are provided. The encryption/decryption apparatus adapted to perform encryption/decryption operation on digital data includes a data encryption/decryption unit, a random number generator, and a power analysis protecting circuit. The data encryption/decryption unit receives the digital data and performs an encryption/decryption operation on the digital data. The random number generator is used to generate random number data, the random number data has N bits, and N is a positive integer. The power analysis protecting circuit generates M kinds of power signals having different levels according to each bit data of the random number data when the random number data is received by the power analysis protecting circuit, and M is equal to the Npower of 2.
