Summary:
Beta encoder is an analog-to-digital converter which is robust to the fluctuation of the threshold voltage in a quantizer. Such a beta encoder is considered as a good candidate for random number generators (RNGs). In order to use a beta encoder as a RNG, strong correlation between consecutive bits must be eliminated. In this paper, the exclusive-or (EXOR) of outputs from multiple beta encoders is used as a random number. We investigated the statistical property of such a random number.
