I'd like to conjure up a random bit generator.
Just feed it a clock and have it generate random bits.
74HC... components preferred... I have most everything in that family
in my parts bin ;-)

Whoopeee!!!
Right up my alley!
Do you want truly random or pseudorandom, and if pseudorandom how long
do you want the output to be before it repeats?

Pseudo-random is just fine. I just need it to test an
encoding/decoding chip design. A hundred bits or so before repeat
would be quite adequate. No security involved... just testing to be
sure of no decoding hiccups.
Thanks!
