Bits 31:7 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.
Bit 6 SEIS: Seed error interrupt status
This bit is set at the same time as SECS. It is cleared by writing 0. Writing 1 has no effect.
0: No faulty sequence detected
1: At least one faulty sequence has been detected. See SECS bit description for details.
An interrupt is pending if IE = 1 in the RNG_CR register.
Bit 5 CEIS: Clock error interrupt status
This bit is set at the same time as CECS. It is cleared by writing 0. Writing 1 has no effect.
0: The RNG clock is correct (fRNGCLK> fHCLK/32)
1: The RNG has been detected too slow (fRNGCLK< fHCLK/32)
An interrupt is pending if IE = 1 in the RNG_CR register.
Bits 4:3 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.
Bit 2 SECS: Seed error current status
0: No faulty sequence has currently been detected. If the SEIS bit is set, this means that a
faulty sequence was detected and the situation has been recovered.
1: At least one of the following faulty sequence has been detected:
– One of the noise source has provided more than 64 consecutive bits at a constant
value (“0” or “1”), or more than 32 consecutive occurrence of two bit patterns (“01”
or “10”)
– Both noise sources have delivered more than 32 consecutive bits at a constant
value (“0” or “1”), or more than 16 consecutive occurrence of two bit patterns (“01”
or “10”)
Bit 1 CECS: Clock error current status
0: The RNG clock is correct (fRNGCLK> fHCLK/32). If the CEIS bit is set, this means that a
slow clock was detected and the situation has been recovered.
1: The RNG clock is too slow (fRNGCLK< fHCLK/32).
Note: CECS bit is valid only if the CED bit in the RNG_CR register is set to 0.
Bit 0 DRDY: Data Ready
0: The RNG_DR register is not yet valid, no random data is available.
1: The RNG_DR register contains valid random data.
Once the output buffer becomes empty (after reading the RNG_DR register), this bit returns to
0 until a new random value is generated.
Note: The DRDY bit can rise when the peripheral is disabled (RNGEN=0 in the RNG_CR
register).
If IE=1 in the RNG_CR register, an interrupt is generated when DRDY=1.
