We present novel architecture for True Random Number Generator based on Transition Effect Ring Oscillators. The TRNG consists of 16 transition effect oscillators and also malfunction detector. The malfunction detector can evaluate each TRNG bit right after it was generated. The evaluation utilizes described TRNG mathematical model. Our designed True Random Number Generator is implemented in Act...

A new and simple bit transition detection technique for non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signals is described. The bit transition detector uses MOSFET transistor’s nonlinearity to extract return-to-zero (RZ) signals from NRZ signals. The resulting RZ signals can be used for injection-locking an oscillator, performing clock synchronization. A 10Gbps injection-locked clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit...

A model of radiation action by energetic heavy ions, inspired by a study of particle tracks in electron sensitive emulsion, has been successfully applied to many radiation effects in condensed matter, yielding quantitative descriptions and occasional predictions. Radiation effects are attributed primarily to secondary electrons. Each detector is imagined to be a collection of targets whose radi...
