Wrong wall-wart, now what?

Postby SpeexVocon » Fri Jan 21, 2011 1:44 am

I built my ybox2 and plugged it in to the wall with an adapter that had the recommend voltage and amperage. But out of simple carelessness, I accidentally used an adapter with A/C output. So now the propeller chip isn't recognized when I try to program it. Do you have any recommendations on what I should replace?? (i.e. the prop, eeprom, enc chip?)

A/C shouldnt have damaged it since there's a diode in series, do you have a photo of the kit?
