Evaluation and Monitoring of Free Running Oscillators Serving as Source of Randomness
In this paper, we evaluate clock signals generated in ring oscillators and self-timed rings and the way their jitter can be transformed into random numbers. We show that counting the periods of the jittery clock signal produces random numbers of significantly better quality than the methods in whic...
