I have a picaxe o8-m chip and I was trying to program it on a prototyping breadboard using the schematic in the picture below I was using 4.5 volts.
Then after a couple of seconds it started heating up! so I figured it was wired wrong. So I made a PCB of the circuit and I know for sure that it's wired right. And it is powered by three AA batteries(4.5 volts). But for some reason it still heated up!!
So if anyone knows why its doing this please let me know!
