MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM243X: Pseudo/ True Random Number Generation

Part Number: MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM243X


Hello,

for our industrial ethernet application we need to generate (pseudo) random numbers on the Sitara.

Does the SDK/ Sitara support a convenience way for generating random numbers by hardware? 

The TI Arm Clang compiler supports srand() and rand(). But we need a seed-value for srand() from some number generator.

Only hint I found in the TRM of sitara is something called DRBG but I dont know if we can use this or how to use this:

Thanks 

Fabian
