Hello All,
Back at it again with another board issue.......
I unknowingly plugged a display module that had a shorted diode into this board, the result was a puff of smoke and the crater by the ground plane seen in the picture below. Having another board with the same issue, I began to test and remove components one by one with the hopes of figuring out what the shorted diode destroyed but haven't had any luck.
It seems that many components are shorted to ground as well after the initial incident, I'm not sure how else to diagnose this issue other than removing every single component until the short disappears.
As always any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated!
