    identical distributions, and the third design compensates for the probability inaccuracy caused by the variations using a two-step switching process. All three designs can generate high-quality random sequences without using complicated post-processing or real-time feedback circuits. Moreover, general

    the variation challenges, three variation-resilient TRNG designs based on STT-MTJs are proposed in this thesis work. The first design utilizes a parallel structure with multiple devices to minimize the variation effects, the second design leverages the symmetry of an MTJ pair to take advantage of two

    In the Internet of Things (IoT) era, security has increasingly become a challenge, so encryption has been widely used to protect data. Random number generators (RNGs), as an essential part of cryptographic systems, are implemented in connected devices for information security. However, inadequate
