The specific entropy source has ben designed by +Bernd Paysan. + +The entropy source used two sets of 16 free running digital oscillators +that are interconnected. + +The system uses the coretest module to read and write 32-bit data to +core, In this case it allows a caller to read generated random 16-bit +values from the entropy source. The 16 bit data is in the LSB of the +word. + +The completc system contains a UART core for external access. The +project contains pin assignments etc to implement the system on a +TerasIC C5G board. -- cgit v1.2.3
