Abstract: Disclosed is a true random number generator and a method for generating a true random number. The true random number generator includes a sampling circuit and a random number generating circuit. The sampling circuit is configured to sample N voltage(s) of N capacitors according to a clock signal and thereby generate N sample value(s), in which the N is a positive integer. The random number generating circuit is configured to generate a random number according to at least a part of the N sample value(s).

Abstract: Disclosed is a capacitive touch detecting device including a sampler circuit and a detection-and-calibration circuit. The sampler circuit executes the following steps: charging a capacitor when the level of a clock signal is high, wherein the capacitor's capacitance is a first capacitance provided a touch event occurs and is a second capacitance provided the touch event doesn't occur, the first capacitance is greater than the second capacitance and related to a parasitic capacitance and a touch capacitance, and the second capacitance is unrelated to the touch capacitance; sampling a voltage determined by the capacitor during the level transition of the clock signal to generate a sample value; and discharging the capacitor when the level of the clock signal is low. The detection-and-calibration circuit determines whether the touch event occurs and whether at least one parameter needs to be updated according to the sample value and at least one parameter.
