Table 1 summarizes the message digest size and the algorithm block size for each hash method.
Table 1. Usage of hash methods
Hash method Message digest size Algorithm block size (see Note 1)
MD5 128 bits (16 bytes) 512 bits (64 bytes)
RIPEMD-160 160 bits (20 bytes) 512 bits (64 bytes)
SHA-1 160 bits (20 bytes) 512 bits (64 bytes)
SHA-224 224 bits (28 bytes) 512 bits (64 bytes)
SHA-256 256 bits (32 bytes) 512 bits (64 bytes)
SHA-384 384 bits (48 bytes) 1024 bits (128 bytes)
SHA-512 512 bits (64 bytes) 1024 bits (128 bytes)
SHA3-224 224 bits (28 bytes) 1152 bits (144 bytes)
SHA3-256 256 bits (32 bytes) 1088 bits (136 bytes)
SHA3-384 384 bits (48 bytes) 832 bits (104 bytes)
SHA3-512 512 bits (64 bytes) 576 bits (72 bytes)
Note:
  1. If FIRST or MIDDLE calls are made, the text size must be greater than 0 and a multiple of the algorithm block size.

Although the algorithms accept zero bit length text, it is not supported for any hashing method.
