Stepper driver failure causes Teensy to heat up #60

Description

We have observed on both a v1 and a v2 board that when one or both of the stepper drivers fail, they cause the Teensy to heat up (too hot to touch). We suspect this has led to a Teensy being fully fried.

Observations:

  • Something happened and made one or both of the drivers fail (channels A and B).
  • The motors become unresponsive, and the Teensy starts heating up
  • At this point the students unplugged their Teensy quickly
  • We then removed both drivers, replugged the Teensy => fine
  • Replaced the drivers with new ones => fixed
