EE Times: Toshiba tips random-number generator IC

    SAN FRANCISCO -- Toshiba Corp. has claimed a major breakthrough in
    the field of security technology: It has devised the world's
    highest-performance physical random-number generator (RNG)
    circuit.

    The device generates random numbers at a data rate of 2.0 megabits
    a second, according to Toshiba in a paper presented at the
