SAA1099P noise generator as documented by Jepael
seed unknown, must be non-zero
18-bit Galois LFSR
Feedback polynomial = x^18 + x^11 + x^1
Period = 2^18-1 = 262143 bits
Verified to match recorded noise from my SAA1099P
Apparently that makes the noisegen to be clocked by the undivided octave clock, so lowest octave 0 is same as rate X. And each octave higher doubles the noise frequency.

TinyTapeout is an educational project that aims to make it easier and cheaper than ever to get your digital designs manufactured on a real chip.
To learn more and get started, visit https://tinytapeout.com.
Edit the info.yaml and uncomment the source_files and top_module properties, and change the value of language to "Verilog". Add your Verilog files to the src folder, and list them in the source_files property.
The GitHub action will automatically build the ASIC files using OpenLane.
Please see the instructions for:
- Submit your design to the next shuttle on the website. The closing date is November 4th.
- Edit this README and explain your design, how it works, and how to test it.
- Share your GDS on your social network of choice, tagging it #tinytapeout and linking Matt's profile:
- LinkedIn #tinytapeout matt-venn
