发明名称 GENERATING RANDOM NUMBERS UTILIZING ENTROPIC NATURE OF NAND FLASH MEMORY MEDIUM
摘要 Methods and apparatus related to generating random numbers utilizing the entropic nature of NAND flash memory medium are described. In one embodiment, a data pattern is written to a portion of a non-volatile memory device and is subsequently read multiple times. Based on the read operations, at least one bit is marked for random number generation based at least partially on comparison of a number of flips by the at least one bit and a threshold value. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

主权项 1. An apparatus comprising: logic to write a data pattern to a portion of a non-volatile memory device; and logic to read one or more bits from the portion of the non-volatile memory device a first number of times, wherein at least one bit of the one or more bits are to be marked for random number generation based at least partially on comparison of a number of flips by the at least one bit and a threshold value.
