In April 2025, Korn developed the TRNG Self-Test Threshold Guidance feature for the chipsalliance/caliptra-rtl repository, focusing on enhancing hardware random number generator validation. Korn established entropy-based high, low, and repetition count thresholds, aligning TRNG configuration with security and performance requirements for production environments. The work centered on clear, maintainable documentation using Markdown, ensuring users could easily adopt the new guidance. By integrating these recommendations, Korn reduced configuration risk and improved product reliability. The contribution demonstrated depth in documentation and technical understanding of entropy estimation, though the scope was limited to a single feature without direct bug fixes or broader code changes.
