I am trying to use TreRNG as a hardware random number generator. . Tried the manufacturer website, but could not find anything It could be fun, it exudes random strings on the comport at 400K per sec, on the virtual comport (USB) but it can do much more. I know it can be configured, alas, cannot find any information on the driver, just tidbits, here and there, like setting the DTR pin stops and restarts it, Could anyone point to the direction, to get more info or example code in C? Getting no answer from the manufacturer, as could not register, something seems to be wrong with the website.

Are you using LabWindows/CVI for this programming?
Is there a reason you are trying to generate random numbers in this way?
Can you provide more information about TreRNG?

Yes.
i am putting together a small cryptographic library that can work with embedded systems, controllers via serial and TCP/UDP channels. It supports simple encryiption, session keys, primitive but sufficiently safe authentication and works with keylock and would be nice to have this cheap, fast hardware RNG. TrueRNG is a hardware focused solution with supreme randomity distribution but they provided a limited documentation. This usb device has a driver but can not figure the SDK. You can find the company by simple google search. I was waiting for NI to provide such mini crypto library, for many years. Now I am sweting blood to build it myself as I do need it for a communicating with farm of really cheapo microcontollers and SBCs 😳...
