Abstract

A random number generator includes a first circuit producing a random sequence of values, the first circuit having an adjustable input that changes the entropy of the random sequence of numbers; a second circuit receiving the random sequence of values from the first circuit and producing an output indicative of the degree of entropy of the random sequence of values, and a third circuit that adjusts the adjustable input of the first circuit in response to the output of the second circuit.
