st-link v2-1 vs v3e - any practical difference?

[Bogdan Golab]

Hi,

​Some new nucleo STM32G4 boards have simplified version of the st-link v3 (no bridging feature implemented, at leat at the connector level, I guess).

​

Is there any benefit from having 3e st-link version vs regular 2-1 one?

JTAG/SWD and SWO can go faster. STlinkV3Mini is really afordable as stand alone programmer.

Really needs a 10-pin header cable, the V3Mini ships with a single 14-to-14 cable, whereas the V3Set ships with several cable combinations.

I see a huge savings in the production of STlinkV3Mini, but your price is $ 10.

Our intermediaries add their 3%, making the price becomes $ 30. (this is not math, this is trade)

Question: Is it possible to sell through publicly accessible marketplaces such as AliExpress and the like?

I'd imagine one could sell on eBay or whatever, but there are still costs and shipping.

Trick would be to buy a box/case, and sell locally where the real shipping costs could be contained.

One Chinese sales staff is enough to optimize the entire process. He will find a way to reduce costs.

You can get the Mini a Mouser/Digikey for < 10 $
