With the current shortage and future price increase, it may be worth 
investing in BeagleBone protection again ;-)

This 'surge protector' cape you mention already exists!

Shameless plug:

Have a look at the BeBoPr series of boards and the current BeBoPr++. The 
analogue inputs are designed to handle shorts against a 12 Volt supply. 
Besides the over voltage protection you also get an extra (better) ADC, 
protected digital inputs, both TTL and high current outputs, a 12-24 
Volt to 5 Volt step down converter, I2C level shifter, etc. Oh, and you 
can also use it to control some stepper motors, e.g. to build a 3D 
printer, or a laser cutter, or a router, or something I haven't thought 
of yet. There's a picture and manual available for download via this 
link: https://github.com/modmaker/BeBoPr-plus-plus.

Oh, please don't do that. I read the SRM and review the schematics 
regularly. It is extremely useful to have all that detailed documentation. 

Maybe there are some (possibly even a majority) that don't read the SRM,

Thanks again for all the hard work.

The SRM has been extremely valuable and I do hope the availability on
future boards will continue.  For many digging through the TRM would be an
impossible task in trying to find the info covered by the SRM.  That said,
maybe some more community involvement in writing, editing, and upkeep is in
order.  Not sure how that would work but maybe something to be looked at
come time for the next beagleboard.

[beagleboard] AIN max voltage exceeded

2014-04-09 Thread lubotomie11
Hi,

I was using a BeagleBone Black, and I did the big mistake : 5V input on an 
AIN pin. For those who never tried, nothing really fun happens : the board 
just suddenly shut down, and can't be turned on anymore.

Is there any way to fix this (by replacing a part, or something like that) ?

Thank you,

Lucien

Yes. You will need to replace the most expensive part on the board. The
processor.

Sounds like someone needs to make a surge protector cape for people like 
us... I'd buy that. My current Zener diode monstrosity design isn't 
particularly effective.
