vndecorrelator

Introduction

A Verilog implementation of a von Neumann decorrelator, generally called a conditioner or whitening function. This tiny module consumes entropy bits and outputs decorrelated bits.

The Von Neumann decorrelator consumes pairs of bits and outputs bits based on the pattern in th bit pairs:

In the best case with random bits, the output bitrate will be 1/4. For heavily biased input bits, the rate will be much slower. When used with a broken entropy source that is stuck at zero or one, no bits will be emitted.

This implementation operates on streams of single bits and creates pairs internally.

Status

Implementation done. Tested in FPGA designs and works.
