Intel calls their RNG a "digital random number generator" or DRNG. The generator takes pairs of 256-bit raw entropy samples generated by the hardware entropy source and applies them to an Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) (in CBC-MAC mode) conditioner which reduces them to a single 256-bit conditioned entropy sample.

The current TAS standing at 216 milliseconds (13 frames) was performed by exploiting a small bug with the Famicom and NES hardware in which the CPU makes many extra "read" requests from one of the controller inputs, registering many more button presses than have occurred; the A button is mashed at a rate of 8 kilohertz (8000 times per second ...
