A random bit generator and a method thereof are provided. The random bit
generator includes an amplifier, a comparing circuit, an oscillator, a
sampler, and a storage circuit. The amplifier amplifies a difference
between input signals generated based on thermal noise. The comparing
circuit compares an alternating current (AC) signal output from the
amplifier with a direct current (DC) signal obtained by low-pass
filtering the AC signal and outputs a signal according to the comparison
result. The oscillator may be implemented with a resistor-capacitor (R-C)
oscillator. The oscillator consumes lower current and occupies a smaller
layout area than a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and outputs an
oscillation signal. The sampler samples the oscillation signal output
from the oscillator in response to the output signal of the comparing
circuit. The storage circuit stores an output signal of the sampler in
response to a clock signal.
