The entropy providers being tested are the noise +based entropy provider and the ring oscillator based entropy provider. + +The following cores are used in the system: + - core/coretest, the test command parser + + - core/i2c, the serial interface that connects the system to the + Novena CPU. + + - core/avalanche_entropy, the entropy provider that is driven by an + external noise source. + + - core/rosc_entropy, the entropy provider driven by jitter between 32 + independently running ring oscillators in the FPGA. + + - core/trng, the cryptech random number generator.
