from above ...
San Jose, Calif. -- Security specialist Certicom Corp. this week will
roll out a hardware-based approach to protecting silicon intellectual
property using its elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) technology and a
20,000-gate embedded core.
... snip ...
in 2000, the initial estimate was 40,000-gate embedded core ... but that
included the key-gen and public key export as part of initial power-on/test.
