54.5.5.12 Reseed Operation
With the Reseed operation, DRBG2 is reseeded with new entropy, and its reseed counter is reset.
New entropy always comes from DRBG1. In addition, external random entropy can be provided via PUF_DIR. The Data Source register (PUF_SRC) must be configured with 0x1.
The following table shows the number of bytes that must be provided per entropy source.
Entropy Source | Number of Bits | Number of Bytes |
---|---|---|
DRBG1 | 384 | 48 |
Entropy via PUF_DIR | 1024 | 128 |
