Darn

Sometimes I don't pay attention to what I am doing and I shorted the +and - of this small (1.6x4.2 cm) microcontroller). Check the AA battery for size!

After some diagnosing I found out that a small 2.5 mm long SMD Scottky diode blew. Found a new one that is abt 4mm long that I now have to try and get in. I already hated that when I had young eyes. Now it has become a sheer impossibility I guess :-) oh well. I will try. I might even let the old one in, glue the new one on top and then just solder the ends together.

SMD= surface mount device
