Recently the first physically realistic protocol amplifying the randomness of Santha-Vazirani sources using a finite number of no-signaling devices and with a constant rate of noise has been proposed, however there still remained the open question whether this can be accomplished under the minimal conditions necessary for the task. Namely, is it possible to achieve randomness amplification using only two no-signaling devices and in a situation where the violation of a Bell inequality implies only an upper bound for some outcome probability for some setting combination? Here, we solve this problem and present the first device-independent protocol for the task of randomness amplification of Santha-Vazirani sources using a device consisting of only two non-signaling components. We show that the protocol can amplify any such source that is not fully deterministic into a totally random source while tolerating a constant noise rate and prove the security of the protocol against general no-signaling adversaries. The minimum requirement for a device-independent Bell inequality based protocol for obtaining randomness against no-signaling attacks is that every no-signaling box that obtains the observed Bell violation has the conditional probability P(x|u) of at least a single input-output pair (u,x) bounded from above. We show how one can construct protocols for randomness amplification in this minimalistic scenario.
