keccak256-circom

Keccak256 hash function (ethereum version) implemented in circom. Spec: https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.202.pdf

Warning: WIP, this is an experimental repo.

Status

Initial version works, compatible with Ethereum version of Keccak256.

Usage

// make sure to include from your copy of circomlib
include "circomlib/circuits/gates.circom";
include "circomlib/circuits/sha256/xor3.circom";
include "circomlib/circuits/sha256/shift.circom";

var INPUT_BITS = 1024; // number of bits of the input message as a multiple of 8 (one byte)
component keccak = Keccak(INPUT_BITS, 256);
for (var i = 0; i < INPUT_BITS; i++) {
    keccak.in[i] <== msg[i];
}
for (var i = 0; i < 512; i++) {
    out[i] <== keccak.out[i];
}
