Apparatuses, systems, and methods for voltage based random number generation
Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for voltage based random number generation. A memory may include a number of different voltages, which may be used to power various operations of the memory. During access operations to the memory, the voltage may vary, for example as word lines of the memory are accessed. The variability of the voltage may represent a source of randomness and unpredictability in the memory. A random number generator may provide a random number based on the voltage. For example, an analog to binary converter (ADC) may generate a binary number based on the voltage, and the random number may be based on the binary number.
