Abstract
True Random Number Generators (TRNGs) are used in a variety of applications including cryptography, computer simulation, gambling games, machine learning and hyperdimensional computing. In this work, we report a novel high dense, high throughput and high entropy DRAM-based TRNG, named DTRNG, that exploits the process variations inherited by the DRAM cell’s access transistor and sense amplifiers. DTRNG can be employed in commodity DRAM chips with no hardware overhead and using the standard memory controller commands. The random sequence generated by DTRNG has passed all the NIST test without any post-processing demonstrating randomness and suitability for security scheme.
