Burned AMS1117 on Arduino Mega R3

zygmunt:

Maybe it burned some traces that supply power to the 16u2. 5V or ground.
Traces looks good, but I saw that chip stays hot when power is plugged.

Arrrggghh... It will be hard (or maybe impossible for me) to fix it in home...

EDIT:
CLOSED, now it's really burned...;-/

Sounds like the chip is dead.
