Abstract

A random code generator includes a control circuit, a high voltage power supply, a memory module and a counter. The control circuit generates a control signal and an enabling signal. During a program cycle, the enabling signal is activated. The high voltage power supply receives the enabling signal. A charge pump of the high voltage power supply generates a program voltage according to an oscillation signal. When the enabling signal is activated, the high voltage power supply outputs the program voltage. The memory module determines a selected memory cell of the memory module according to the control signal. During the program cycle, the selected memory cell receives the program voltage. During the program cycle, the counter counts a pulse number of the oscillation signal to acquire a counting value, and the control circuit determines a random code according to the counting value.
