Hi, apparently I must have somehow damaged my Beagle Bone Black Rev C. At the time the device was damaged, only GND, VDD_3V3B, VDD_5V and Ethernet were connected, so I am sure it was not overvoltage at one of the GPIO/AIN pins (got my experiences with that already). The current state of the device is that the power LED turns and stays on when connected via VDD_5V, but the device does not boot or turn on the VDD_3V3B rail. When connected to a USB power supply, the power LED flashes only once. My power supply providing the 5V DC is based on the TPS5430/31EVM-173 3A Regulator Evaluation Module BY Texas Instruments, which has worked nicely so far.
There is some (currently unused) circuitry connected to VDD_3V3B. Any ideas what could have caused the damage? I had stumbled over the problem with unreliable start ups with long VDD_5V rise times previously (although I have not seen it for some time), but I was under the impression that this was a non-permanent issue that could be resolved by repowering the board. Is there something that might permanently damage the BBB when simply powering up and down?
