Area efficient True random number generators by using DCM
Abstract
True random number generators (TRNGs) play a very important role in modern cryptographic systems. Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) form an ideal platform for hardware implementations of many of these security algorithms. In this brief, we present a highly efficient and tunable TRNG based on the principle of beat frequency detection, specifically for Xilinx-FPGA-based applications. The main advantages of the proposed TRNG are its on-the-fly tunability through dynamic partial reconfiguration to improve randomness qualities. The proposed TRNG has low hardware footprint and built-in bias elimination capabilities. The random bit streams generated from it pass all tests in the NIST statistical test suite.
