RFM95W transceiver module burning out at runtime

ok. makes sense.

Please let me know if my understanding is correct - The load here is the RFM95W. It is generating stray RF currents at times which in turn is causing a voltage spike on the MCP1702 as the filter capacitors prescribed in the application note are missing?

I will put these filters capacitors, use a new RFM95W module and get back with the results!
