SE050E AEAD Decryption in S32K314

Changhawn — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 07:09:38 GMT

Dear

In S32K314 Platform, developing TLS1.3 with SE050E.

During the TLS1.3 handshake,

the AEAD(AES GCM) key is imported as the traffic key.

The AEADOneShot command (AES GCM calculation) Se05x_API_AeadOneShot() is executed.

However, SE050 is not able to access I2C with a NACK. I don't know the reason.

I2C was working fine before this issue occurred. S32K314 I2C Problem? or SE050 problem?

Thank you.

Chang

Hi @Changhawn

The current MbedTLS middleware stack for S32K3 devices supports Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Version 1.2, along with security features provided by the HSE. At this time, TLS 1.3 is not supported on S32K3 devices, and its implementation falls outside the scope of our support.

For any issues related to SE050, please post your questions in the Secure Authentication community, where the dedicated support team for these devices can assist you further.
