Hi Guys, I am afraids these postings get too long for me te keep up :(
Please consider: - Determine the quality of a pseudo random sequence is mathematics. I've choosen a pretty good algorithm (according to the info I found on the net) and would suggest to use it or switch to a weaker on if you need to save time or flash space. Or of course a better algorithm, but i've not seen any valid arguments for this. - It would be good to have - in addition to the algorithm at hand - a way to generate a seed that is non-deterministic, even when this is low-quality like using unconnected adc registers or memory value. This generator should works on any pic (or at least most pics) and is independent of external components. - The suggested methodes could give such a seed, but will provide much less quality (pseudo) random than the algorithm at hand. So please don't consider it a replacement. - Real random (opposed to pseudo random) requires some external source like atmospheric noise (see http://www.random.org/). The avalanche effect of a semiconductur might be a local alternative (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1338337/pdf/jeabehav00162-0045.pdf) Joep -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group.
