I need someone check this board layout for me to see why it is not working.
First, I am using the converter LCT3454

The boad layout is as follows:
**broken link removed**
**broken link removed**
The circuit is basically a copy of the reference but i've added some other support circuitry. I have prototyped the board to to just include the converter circuit.
Input and Output capacitors: 10uf
L1: 4.7uh
Vc: 0.1uf
Iset1: 3.6kohm
En1: 4.2V
En2: GND
Vout: LED +
LED: LED -
Vin = 4.2V
Initial observations before powering circuit: LED is connected to gnd internally in the chip
When I power on the chip, I get a blink and then the converter chip gets hot. After that, I check the chip and find GND and SW2 are shorted together. That means the chip must be fried or busted now right? Can anyone figure out why that happens?
