In this paper a random transistor-transistor logic signal generator and a synchronization circuit are designed and implemented in lab-scale measurement device independent — quantum key distribution systems. The random operation of the weak coherent sources and system's synchronization signals were tested by time to digital convertor.
time to digital convertor, coincidence window, photon arrival time
