iRNG produces instant randomness from an on-chip high-entropy noise source, solving a long-standing open problem in the electronics industry. Current approaches such as ring-oscillator based solutions have very long set-up times, must be hand-crafted in hardware and have inherently low entropy.
iRNG is available as a separate IP block both in hardware RTL and as platform independent embedded software libraries. The RTL version allows its integration into new chip designs with little extra cost and minimal area overhead. The embedded software version upgrades fielded devices (such as mobile phones and smart cards) with a truly random number generator. All SRAMs are supported, with no impact on the design flow and minimal impact on area, performance or power.
For a complete security solution, iRNG can be combined with Intrinsic-ID’s other products, such as Quiddikey. This allows encryption or protocols based entirely on hardware intrinsic security (HIS), with no secret information leaving the device unprotected.
