#Toadstool-MSPg2553
Toadstool Development Board - MSP430G2553
The Toadstool family is made up of breadboard-friendly prototyping boards that house a microcontroller, and modules called Caps that connect using a standard header. The prototyping board is analagous to an Arduino/Launchpad and the Cap analagous to a shield/boosterpack.
This repository contains the schematics for the Toadstool-MSPg2553 prototyping board, a breadboard-friendly PCB that houses the Texas Instruments MSP430G2553 microcontroller.
The boards were layed out using KiCad - KiCad is open source and awesome.
There are a number of other CrashBangProto respositories containing the schematics for other Toadstool boards and Caps, as well as sample code to get you up and running.
Visit the Toadstool Webpages for more information on the project.

Questions
How big is the Toadstool MSPg2553 PCB?
It measures 49.5 × 56.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Toadstool MSPg2553 use?
27 parts, built around the MSP430G2553CY and LD1117. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Toadstool MSPg2553 KiCad files?
From the CrashBangProto/Toadstool-MSPg2553 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Schematics/Toadstool-MSPg2553.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Toadstool MSPg2553 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
