Look for DIP or SIP packaging - sometimes called "through hole". The surface mount styles are far more difficult to solder on Veroboard because their pin spacing is narrower than the copper tracks and holes.

dick_freebird, veroboard is similar to the pad matrix you show but has copper strips joining all the pads in one direction, it's very popular in Europe but I'm not sure about the US.
eddieAng - forget Veroboard for this device. You can't even solder it without special equipment. The whole IC will fit in the width of a single Veroboard track, it's only 4mm x 4mm x 0.8mm thick (just over 1/8 inch sides).

Hi Ed.
The ADP150 is a linear 150mA regulator - you will find it's data sheet here: https://www.analog.com/en/power-management/linear-regulators/adp150/products/product.html
You can use any ADC/MCU you like, the data sheet shows an ARM procressor but as long as you can interface to the AD8232 there's no reason why you can't use a different type. You also need a display device or a serial interface if you are using a computer to monitor the output. I have never programmed ARM devices so I'm not sure what you need to do it, I would expect more than just a serial cable though.
Before embarking on this project, are you fully aware of the complications of sourcing a single IC and handling it? They are normally sold on reels of 1,500. Sorry if I sound as though I'm casting doubts on your skills but these are tiny ICs and extremely difficult to handle, they are normally mounted by machine, not by hand. You have to make solder joints no more than 0.25mm apart on tracks of similar width. You might find it easier to buy an evaluation kit which will have the IC already mounted on it.
I have several PCB packages but my preference for simple designs is Kicad, it's free and fairly easy to use on Linux and Windoze platforms.

Several companies will do this but before we can make suggestions, please tell us where in the World you are. Often the cost of shipping/customs and import/export regulations make some outsourcing uneconomical or impossible.

I try to design my boards single sided then make the PCB myself but this may not be possible with your project. I've recently designed a board for use in a movie prop (I can't name it but here's a hint: Sk*fall) which had to be double sided but didn't use such small components. The design was done in Kicad and fabrication done by https://www.pcbpanel.co.uk but their web site seems to be running very slowly at the moment.
I'm not sure they will do assembly for you but they can probably recommend a company that will. I think you might find it rather expensive though because handling such small devices requires special equipment and hot air soldering.
