This week's episode builds on the previous episode by highlighting five more ways you can damage an Arduino.

We also learn about an Arduino UNO derivate designed to protect against each potential mishap.


*We will cover:*

Mistake #6: Applying greater than 3.3V to the 3.3V Connector Pin

Mistake #7: Shorting Vin to GND (when powering with the DC power jack)

Mistake #8: Applying 5V External Power with a Load on Vin

Mistake #9: Applying greater than 13V to the Reset Pin

Mistake #10: Exceeding the Total Microcontroller Current of 200mA

*Everything has limits.*

If you try to drive a semi-trailer full of gold bars over a tiny bridge, you could exceed the weight limit of the bridge, destroying the bridge and probably screwing up the semi-truck too.

Or, if you drive a car at 100mph and then try to stop it within ten feet of a brick wall – you’re probably going get all smashed up - and it’s not the car’s fault – there are certain limits the vehicle must be operated within.

The Arduino is no different. It has limits that it must be operated within. If you exceed those limits expect that you will damage or destroy an Arduino board.

If you know the limits - if you’re equipped with this knowledge - then you'll be able to protect yourself from making the mistakes that might lead to destruction.
