Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure provide a system for providing a true random number (TRN) or physically unclonable function (PUF), including: an array of voltage controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) cells; a voltage pulse tuning circuit for generating and applying a stochastically tuned voltage pulse to the VCMA cells in the array of VCMA cells, wherein the stochastically tuned voltage pulse has a magnitude and duration that provides a 50%-50% switching distribution of the VCMA cells in the array of VCMA cells; and a bit output system for reading a state of each of the VCMA cells in the array of VCMA cells to provide a TRN or PUF.
