Burnt my board!

@Joeboofx said in Burnt my board!:
"attempt to move motors when VIN is not in range"
Do you think that could have been why I got the "attempt to move motors when VIN is not in range" message / error?
-
The thin wires could cause excessive voltage drop and resulting in the error message, but would depend on how thin the wires really are, power supply voltage, heater power and motor currents.
Its most likely not related to the failing of the 5v regulator chip.
-
So yeah the power wires were temporary. The power supply came out of a Delta style 3d printer and I just hadn't gotten around to switching them out. Laziness on my part. Off hand I'd say they're 18-20 gauge.
-
Forgot to add; maybe post when and where it was purchased as there isn't much point in waiting for the admins to consider it a warranty replacement if its already out of warranty. Sounds like its a new board though?
-
Yeah, new board maybe 4ish months since I bought it from Matterhackers.
-
Hi, sorry to see you've had a failure.
Have you measured the voltage at the power supply output with a multimeter just to ensure it's within expected range?
Please contact Matterhackers and initiate a warranty replacement. You can refer to this thread.

There’s a hole in his voltage regulator, I doubt the problem is a lack of Vin.
-
Thanks for everybody's help. Just received a new board and I'm going to try again.
-
Be sure to verify that your PSU is outputting 24v and not 36v or something ridiculous.
-
Output is 23.9v

@Phaedrux I think you're on the right diagnostic path. The only way this goes form operational to a "hole in his voltage regulator" that also triggers the Voltage out of range warning, from my experience anyway, is overvoltage. A poorly designed PSU can have a large poorly regulated inrush when powering it up. I have a few older warn out 24volt supplies that will spike 60 volts on power-up. In my old power supply instance, connected to AOZ1284 Buck controller in the D3 that only has a max operating voltage of 36v will certainly brick it.
