Dear Sir/Madam,
I am an Analog Test Engineer and sometimes,there are tricky issues or problems.The other day,I plugged in the unit that our company manufactures and there was a puff of smoke.
I checked the wiring,it was alright.Anyways,I checked the fuse and it was blown out so,I changed the fuse.When I powered the unit on again,it drew a lot of current and on extensive fault finding by me and my colleague,we came to a conclusion that the PIC had blown.
When it blew(we couldnt see it but it was the only part of the circuit we could think of),it created an internal short and it drew a lot of current.Why ?
Besides,PIC's do not blow without improper wiring which was not the case in my case so why did it blow?
Thanking you,
