ABSTRACT:
A system and method for generating a random number is disclosed. The method and system include providing at least one oscillator, providing a sampler, and providing a sample control. The sampler is coupled to the at least one oscillator. The sampler is for sampling the at least one oscillator to provide at least a portion of the random number. The sample control is coupled to the sampler and is for controlling the sampler to sample the at least one oscillator at an interval which is based on a portion of a previous random number provided using the at least one oscillator.
