Hey... I just got a BS2P24/40 Demo Board with a BS2p40 module last week... it's been working fine until today... for some reason when I started up today, identify could not find the stamp... echo and loopback were fine so I know the serial is working... I then felt the module and noticed it was hot... I unplugged the power... I checked the circuit and everything looks fine... Does anyone have any idea why it's getting hot and what to do?

    Hello,

    It sounds like the BS2p 40 is in thermal run away.· You can contact our sales department at 1-888-997-8267·and ask for an RMA number.· This will allow us to test it.· Can you provide us a schematic of your circuit, this will help us determine if there is a problem.
