Ever wonder what would happen if you applied say, 4.1V, to a USBizi-100? Let me save you the troubleā¦sad thing is we burnt up two boards before we realized the problem 
Wow! That is one fancy gadgeteer module!
Ouch, that got tu hurt 
Is that a educational board or a commercial product ?
I see Missouri S&Tā¦ That must be a digital cow counter. 
It is a custom board we did here last year for a research project. It was made to fit in a nice plastic case with the FEZ Touch screen on the other side.
@ Mike - careful!
Marlboro man doesnāt mess around! ;D ;D
So Missouri is associated with cows and cowboys ? 
nah, that would be University of Missouri - Columbia. They have all the ag related studies and such. At S&T we are just a bunch of engineers (i.e. geeks.) 
I think I see the source of the problem. You put the bizi on there crooked! 
Wow! Did it actually desolder itself from the board?
No I desoldered the IC as I wanted to see how badly the board was damaged. A colleague has one of those fancy Pace 1700 SMD rework machines. The machine has a heating/vacuum had that is lowered down over the part and heats the part according to the profile set then holds onto the part with a vacuum nozzle and lifts the part from the board. Typically it works great, in this case a couple of the traces actually welded to the IC pins so the vacuum was not able to pull the part up. I had to pop the IC loose with a small wooden stick.
We now have this board put up on the shelf as a reminder to do our power circuitry right the first time.
I can also claim ownership for frying both boards, the first one went off out of nowhere, the next one went off right as I had the board connected to external power and USB. I saw a faint bit of smoke coming from the enclosure, and upon pulling the cover off, we were greeted with a decent sized mushroom cloud. It even singed part of the battery and left a big stain on the inside of the enclosure.
