DC brick gets very hot

[Anton]

Hi,

 

My DC brick has stopped working i am no longer able to connect and the leds are not turning on.

 

I've noticed recently that it gets very hot.

At the moment i'm not using it to control a motor, i'm only using it for the extra bricklet connections.

 

The place where it gets very hot is right on the Atmel chip.

I've tried to put it in boot loader mode, but so far i haven't been successful.

 

So do you think that it is fried somehow and the brick is lost or is there anything i can do to try and fix it?

 

Thanks.

Hi Anton,

 

it is very hard to tell what the problem is. Maybe it's a problem with

the driver IC. Please contact us via email.

 

Thanks,
