Abstract:
A random number generating device includes: a pulse voltage generator configured to generate a pulse voltage having an amplitude of 26 mV or more; a random noise generating element including source and drain regions formed at a distance from each other on a semiconductor substrate, a tunnel insulating film formed on a portion of the semiconductor substrate located between the source region and the drain region, and a gate electrode formed above the tunnel insulating film and to which the pulse voltage is applied, the random noise generating element configured to generate a random noise contained in a current flowing between the source region and the drain region; and a random number generating unit configured to generate a random number signal based on the random noise.
