TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / TinyDuino Smoking

« on: November 16, 2016, 06:28:25 PM »

I was working on a project. The tinyduino had been plugged in to usb for 30 minutes. I unplugged my usb cord to do something. When I plugged it back in the stack immediately started smoking and smelling toxic. The processor shield gets really hot. I can still upload code to the stack but I quickly have to power down as it gets hot. I have examined all ports and see no bent pins or such.

Shields in the stack bottom to top were:
Processor,
USB interface,
LCD Screen.
