We have today released the complete source for our SG100
Hardware Random Number Generator. The purpose of the release,
of the source code, is to give our customers a better understanding
of our product. The internal workings of the hash function, inside
the SG100 driver, could be of interest to sci.crypt readers as
this hash function is especially designed to extract entropy from a
source with correlations and statistical deficiencies.
