Abstract
According to one embodiment, a random number generator is provided including an oscillator arrangement including a first oscillator and a second oscillator. The oscillator arrangement is configured such that a predetermined output state of the second oscillator triggers a transition of the first oscillator from a first oscillation speed to a second oscillation speed and a predetermined output state of the first oscillator triggers a transition of the first oscillator from the second oscillation speed to the first oscillation speed. The random number generator may further include a counter circuit configured to count the number of clock cycles of at least one of the first oscillator or the second oscillator between two transitions of the first oscillator from the first oscillation speed to the second oscillation speed and an output circuit configured to output a random number based on the counted number of clock cycles.
