[sdiy] Uniformly distributed noise generator?

[Steve Ridley]

A "noisy sawtooth" or triangle circuit might meet your needs.

Take a sawtooth generator and modulate it hard with noise.

The Buchla 265 "Source of Uncertainty" and the Serge
Noise Generator are examples.

A quad opamp and a transistor plus a few passives...
