Can you open source your STLINK-V3MINIE?

All hardware and codes,

Your design is not easy to use.

ST isn't going to open source ST-Link.

What's hard to use about it? Likely someone can help if you describe what problem you are having.

@STTwo-32

Thanks for your advice,

Then can you design a new version of STLINK-V3MINIE like this?

@FZhen.3 What you show in the double-inserted picture is not an open source tool, but an illegally manufactured and incomplete clone of the ST-LINK/V2, with which there are meanwhile massive problems due to its incompatibility. STMicroelectronics does not support such counterfeits, nor does it make any variant of the ST-LINK available as open source - because otherwise we would no longer be able to guarantee compatibility and interoperability.

@FZhen.3 there's no need to post the same thing twice in two separate replies - everyone can see all posts!

ST has never open-sourced any ST-Link hardware or software - why would they start now?

But there are open-source debug adaptors available; eg,

Why not? In what way(s), specifically, do you find it "not easy" ?

As the others have said, if you describe the problem(s) then people can probably help you to overcome them...

Like, me personally? Yes, I have the skills necessary to do so.

Why not just use a debugger that exists and works well like the STLINK-V3MINIE?

@TDK

STLINK-V3MINIE is not convenient to use, Doesn't have a outer casing, It is easy to damage, and the wiring is inconvenient.
