Right, Adafruit was aware there was no ground connection. They just said this should not have caused the BBB to fry from voltage running through the FET gate pins which were connected to the board. On Friday, March 6, 2015, JS-BBB wrote: > If I assume that the ground on the circuit didn't have a

I wired up a circuit with an LED strip, 3 N-channel MOSFETs, and a separate 12V power supply, with the gate pins on the MOSFETS connected to I/O pins on the Beaglebone. When I didn't connect the circuit to the Bone ground, I apparently fried 2 boards. Neither will boot up. One gives a flicker o
