 # MicroRNG Software Kit
 
-[MicroRNG](https://tectrolabs.com/microrng/) is a hardware (true) random number generator device that can be used in embedded systems as a reliable entropy source. It can interface with microcontrollers or microprocessors (mainboards) with integrated circuits and modules through a mikroBUS™ socket using SPI or 2-wire UART interface and can generate random numbers at a rate up to 1 Mbps in SPI mode and up to 1.5 Mbps in UART mode.
