Design and implementation of a high quality TRNG in FPGA

This paper focuses on the design and implementation of a high quality true-random number generator (TRNG) in FPGA. Various practical issues which we encountered are highlighted and the influence of the various parameters on the functioning of the TRNG are discussed. We also propose a few values for the parameters which use the minimum amount of the resources but still pass common random number generator test batteries such as DieHard and TestU01.
