MicroStrong™ TRNG

Our solution, built strong on our many issued US and foreign patents and our 25 years of ongoing technical development, worldwide sales and user experience, is offered in a truly tiny IC (2.2 x 2.6 x 0.5mm).  Operating power consumption is 12 to 15mW, depending on generation rate from 4 to 16 million bits per second. Standby power drops to microwatts. Operating temperature is –40 to 100°C.

The power of our design is based on a full theoretical understanding of entropy sources and the manipulation of randomness in practical circuitry. We are the only company that can provide a full mathematical proof (to be published) showing our generators are more unpredictable and secure than any other generator available, including others’ so-called quantum generators. All our generators are designed to exceed NIST full entropy (H = 1 – ε, where ε ≤ 2^-64)

As with all our generators, the MicroStrong includes triple-redundant entropy sources that are independently and continuously tested to ensure a minimum of 0.999 bits of entropy per bit. These three sources are then combined to produce the output of the entropy source. Our design requires at least two of the three generators, and their combined output, contain the required minimum entropy before any bits are sent out. These tests run continuously and immediately halt output if these minimum entropies are not met.

The MicroStrong generator was tested using our extraordinarily stringent statistical test suite (open-source in Linux). Our tester is proven fully functional for sequences up to 1Peta bit (10¹⁵) in length – vastly beyond the capability of any other test suites. Each test includes a continuous, cumulative result and a metatest for subsequences of the full sequence. Finally, all metatest results are combined in one Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic. Test results for a continuous 15.1 Tb sequence which follow indicate no statistical defect with an approximate predictability P ≤ 10^-7.
