I've just taken a quick look at it; what I find somewhat troubling is
that it doesn't really try to remove the redundancy from its output.
This is OK to feed into a CSPRNG, but not as an immediate RNG source.

And as far as my own project is concerned: Using large scale SMD-only
MCUs isn't exactly a solution for everybody.


Cheers,
