Random number generator based on a memristive circuit.

In this paper we discuss the details, limitations, and difficulties of the implementation in hardware of a memristor-based random number generator that exhibits monofractal/multifractal behavior. To do so, the components and selection criteria of a reference memristor and one proposed by the authors, the chaotic circuit leveraging them, and the processing that is performed on the chaotic signals to achieve the random discrete sequences are described. After applying the estimation tools, findings indicate that more than 60% of the proposed combinations allow generating random discrete sequences, with long-range dependence, and that both monofractal and multifractal behaviors can also be obtained. Consequently, a hardware system was achieved that can be used as a source of entropy in future synthetic biological signal generators.
