Hi, I have a problem.
I must have done something totally wrong today, because a part of my arduino nano burned. (see picture => next post)
The problem is that I don't get a connection between the arduino and my pc now. That means I can't upload new programs, althougt the blue LED is on.
Does anyone have an idea what kind of thinig this is and if I can replace it.

It is the Schottky Diode between +5V und the +5V from USB Port.

Thanks!
Do I need exactly the same diode specified in the manual? (Diode, Schottky 0.5A 20V) Because I don't know where to get something like this.

No,
you need a Schottky Diode with minimum current of 0,5A and a voltage from 10V.
