MSP430F438: Random numbrs

Max Pom

Part Number: MSP430F438

Hello,

I have a memory component connected to the MSP430 with I2C (~1Mbps rate).

My task is to fill the memory with random numbers (a vector of 8-bit numbers).

It means that the MSP430 needs to generate 8-bit random number every ~100msec.

Can you suggest a way how to do it most efficiently?

Thanks!

Max
