M5Stick FRIED

[cepics]

Hi all, here my fried M5Stick can I save it?

[lukasmaximus]

How is it fried, what happened? nothing appears on the screen? does the LED light up? have you tried re-flashing it.

how does it burn?
does it let out smoke?

[cepics]

Yes smoke from this regulator (I think) I was playing with lidar lite v3 connected via I2C

You may be able to replace it if you have the tools but there is a chance that something else broke.
You also need to look into why it burnt.

@ajb2k3 what this component is?

I was connecting lidar lite v3 PWM to M5Stick grove connector where the Stick start being hot...

[ajb2k3]

@cepics I don't know as Mine has only just been dispatched. I think the Lidr may need to be powered separately to stick.

@lukasmaximus Am I reading the schematics correct?
It looks like a NPN8050 transistor connected to the microphone.

@ajb2k3 Looks like Voltage regulator chip - 5v to 3.3v

Triode is smaller than it.

Thanks @watson
