Yeah.. Its gone now..

@Mark-B Now, I am using a bench-top power supply and I have checked that it supplies a 3.3 Volts using a DMM. But earlier I used a USB to serial 3V3 FTDI cable to supply power to omega2+ without checking its output. Although it was rated 3V3 but the output was +5V as shown on a DMM, which may have damaged the board.

@Chris-Stratton Thanks for the explanation. I suspect that it may be an overvoltage on the power supply. If that is the case, then I guess there is no remedy except to throw away the board.. Correct?

yes, It may have short somewhere but I can't locate it.

@ccs-hello .. I understand but the board is working fine, I can ssh to it, open is webpage and connect to cloud, only thing is that it consumes 1.8 Amps continuously after switching on. Any comments on that?

@ccs-hello -- I have checked and did not find any shortage as far as back of the board is concerned. FYI, I am not using any docks and directly powering the omega2+ from a power supply on VCC and GND pins. Do you think there is some manufacturing defect with the board, please advise

Hi

My Omega2+ board gets really hot and I see that it consumes around 1.8 Amps continuous current eeven when idle. Just want to know if this behavior is normal?
