About the MSPBMP2-stick PCB
MSPBMP2-stick is an open source STM32 PCB design by grumat, published on GitHub under the GPL-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 51.5 × 20 mm, with 48 components from 34 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the AD8531ARTZ, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the AMS1117-3.3, 74LVC2T45DC and TXS0108EPWR. By type, the board carries 23 capacitors, 13 resistors, 4 ICs, 3 connectors, 2 diodes and 1 crystal.
It belongs with the usb & debug tools designs in this gallery.

Glossy MSP430 - Embedded GDB Debugger for MSP430
The second option uses the same principle, but is a more compact option, and uses the form factor of the ST-Link baite version.

I've just bough on Amazon or AliExpress both ST-Link devices and replaced the contents by the PCB's. The PCB's were produced by JLCPCB, which already mounted the SMD components, helping much on the final result.

MSPBMP2-stick: common questions
What microcontroller does the MSPBMP2-stick use?
The MSPBMP2-stick is built around the AD8531ARTZ, from the STM32 family.
How big is the MSPBMP2-stick PCB?
The MSPBMP2-stick measures 51.5 × 20 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the MSPBMP2-stick?
48 components, from 34 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the MSPBMP2-stick design files?
From the grumat/glossy-msp430 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the MSPBMP2-stick design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-2.0 license, which grumat chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the MSPBMP2-stick without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
