Information security is fundamental to the Internet of things (IoT) devices, in which security chip is an important means. This paper proposes an Advanced High-performance Bus Slave Control IP (AHB-SIP), which applies to cryptographic accelerators in IoT security chips. Composed by four types of function registers and AHB Interface Control Logic (AICL), AHB-SIP has a simple and easy-to-use structure. The System on Chip (SoC) design can be realized by quickly converting the nonstandard interface of the security module to the AHB slave interface. AHB-SIP is applied to the security accelerators of SM2, SM3, and SM4 and random number generator (RNG). Combined with a low-power embedded CPU, TIMER, UART, SPI, IIC, and other communication interfaces, a configurable SoC can be integrated. Moreover, SMIC 110 nm technology is employed to tape out the SoC on a silicon chip. The area of AHB-SIP is 0.072 mm(2), only occupying 6 parts per thousand of the chip (3.45*3.45 mm(2)), and the power consumption of encryption modules combined with AHB-SIP is lower than that combined with AXI interface, which is decreased up to 61.0% and is ideal for the application of IoT.
