Hi,
So, this all started with me accidentally using a 12V power supply and basically instantly breaking my pre-made OSSC. I replaced F1 and D5 after finding that they were both broken, but my unit still didn’t show any signs of life, so I also replaced U5 and U6. Still nothing, but now I’ve realized the output pins of U5 and U6 are shorting to ground. I checked all of the voltage regulators for shorts to ground, and here is what I found:
U5 – Output shorts to ground
U6 – Output shorts to ground
U7 – Input and EN short to ground
U9 – Input and EN short to ground
U12 – Input, EN, and Output short to ground
U13 – Input and EN short to ground
U14 – Input and EN short to ground
U15 – Input, EN, and Output short to ground
U16 – Input and EN short to ground
I’m good with soldering, but have a limited understanding of circuitry in general – what are my options here? Do I have a shot if I just replace all the voltage regulators, or does this mean something is wrong with the FPGA or something else?
