Our paper “A Bias-bounded Digital True Random Number Generator Architecture” has been accepted for publication by IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers (TCAS1). In this paper, a staged-running self-timed ring (STR) architecture has been proposed, which generates raw random bits with bias degree lower than 1%, by utilizing the diverse timing characteristics of different initial states of the STR.

Mr. Benben Liu, Mr. Donald Chen and Mr. Bill Min have been granted the captioned Award in recognition of their outstanding academic performance in their research studies in the last twelve months. Congratulations!
