/technologies/fpga-group/b/blog/posts/fpga-waves-7-random-sequence-generatorIntroduction I have a small Brevia 2 Brevia 2 development board from Lattice Semiconductor featuring one of their XP2-family FPGAs. I&#39;m using it to explore, in a very simple, basic kind of way, digital signal generation and processing. ...en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/technologies/fpga-group/b/blog/posts/fpga-waves-7-random-sequence-generatorMon, 11 Nov 2019 15:50:32 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:32c91b52-9bde-41a8-9298-6911eeaaf305neuromodulator0<p>When I learned about meta-stability I thought that maybe it could be used to generate a TRNG. After googling a bit I found that there are indeed approaches that use meta-stabiliy to build TRNG, but there are other approaches as well. Here are some random links that I found:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/thesis-307.pdf" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank" title="https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/thesis-307.pdf">https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/thesis-307.pdf</a> </p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/article-790.pdf" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank" title="https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/article-790.pdf">https://www.esat.kuleuven.be/cosic/publications/article-790.pdf</a> </p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://people.csail.mit.edu/devadas/pubs/ches-fpga-random.pdf" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank" title="https://people.csail.mit.edu/devadas/pubs/ches-fpga-random.pdf">https://people.csail.mit.edu/devadas/pubs/ches-fpga-random.pdf</a> </p><p><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/103707/1/Camera_ready.pdf" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank" title="http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/103707/1/Camera_ready.pdf">http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/103707/1/Camera_ready.pdf</a> </p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=8175&AppID=19&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/technologies/fpga-group/b/blog/posts/fpga-waves-7-random-sequence-generatorMon, 11 Nov 2019 02:37:33 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:32c91b52-9bde-41a8-9298-6911eeaaf305neuromodulator1<p>There are techniques to perform true random number generation on FPGAs, if you want to continue exploring RNGs.</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=8175&AppID=19&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
