Ideally cryptography, simulation and modelling applications require a source of true random numbers. Presented is a true random number generator that exploits metastablity and thermal noise. The novelty is that the low-cost design can be fully integrated with standard CMOS technology.enRandom numbers from metastability and thermal noiseJournal article002005139910.1049/el:200515590002334199000072-s2.0-2394449816854361Ranasinghe, D.
