Bad news... I popped it Sad

I had it working with a 20 mhz crystal for 5 minutes still was testing the hash rate... then it stopped responding. Now cgminer cant identify it, even with the stock resistors and crystal in place Sad

I felt so bad, why I didn't post anything in a while.

On another note I figured out my clock gen circuit was putting out 5v not the 3.3 it should have been. Chances are this is what killed the chip not the speed.

still though I popped it Sad

Got 3 more coming in the mail soon Smiley

I wonder if I could get a replacement chip cheep?
