Hi. I'm using nRF52832, SDK13.0.0.
The roll is peripheral.
And I'm using Oberon to use ECDH.
I think you have the result or document for random generator's performance based on Shannon or NIST or DieHard tests.
Could you please let me know your result?
The RNG module is designed to meet the requirements in Bluetooth. The RNG has been tested in-house according to the NIST SP 800-22 statistical test suite. But it has not been certified by an external test house.
Thank you very much for your reply. As you mentioned, the RNG has been tested. So do you have any document or any result for this in-house test?
Sorry no, but if you intend to run tests yourself just make sure that you enable bias correction:

https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.nrf52832.ps.v1.1/rng.html
Thank you so much for your help. And I checked biad correction, it is enabled.
But as I've tested with Dieharder, the result is not good as below.

I don't know why. I can't explain what's wrong.
I need your more help.
I am not familiar with diehard, but I assume you have used \nRF5_SDK_13.0.0_04a0bfd\examples\peripheral\rng, and enabled RNG_CONFIG_ERROR_CORRECTION 1 in sdk_config.h
Then I assume you received the rng values through UART, how did you process and handle these values? Since they for instance by default output as hex in ascii format, so just want to make sure nothing happened in the conversion there.
What does the rng.txt file look like?
I'm sure that bias enable is enabed as below.
in sdk_config.h
#ifndef RNG_ENABLED
#define RNG_ENABLED 1
#endif
#if RNG_ENABLED

I just realized that Dieharder needs more than 31M integers as blow link.
I will test with 50M integers and let you know. I wish it works well.
Hi,
Did you get some results?
