<p dir="ltr">Temperature is interesting, I'm using a different noise generator circuit for the next release of the OneRNG, mostly I'm changing it to make manufacturing more reliable. The new circuit is slightly better than the current one, and is slightly temperature sensitive (at its worst it's still better than 3.0) I've been running a long term stability test for the past couple of months and I can see the daily temperature changes in the data - it's like a 1% change over the room temp change, in this design the entropy gets slightly better as it warms. I also dropped it in the freezer and it also wasn't much worse, I haven't tried warmer temps.</p>
