Abstract
The concept of hybrid in space-time Cellular Automata is introduced, f or the first time, in this paper, and it is suggested that non-linear hybrid in space-time Cellular Automata can be used as pseudorandom pat tern generators for VLSI systems, because they can produce patterns wi th various densities of ''1'', distributed at will in space and time. The cycle lengths of non-linear hybrid Cellular Automata can be estima ted using Lyapunov exponents.
