  • I didn't mention about breadboards and it becomes a bit unclear for that reason. Otherwise, very accurate advices, thank you. I think this is exactly how I broke my Ardu, PWM on a display shied, it was slowly blinking (dimming) back and forth and around that time, this was the last fortunate moment.

  • It's very hard to predict what happens when a different device is connected (maybe the VCC pin and GND were on different pins). Commented Jul 19, 2017 at 19:58
  • Yes, this particular tft ts display uses almost all pins and there is not hard to predict every possible combination of wrong placement, but it doesn't matter, I can not revive the board, but I can prevent this happening over again.. on the next 3$ board. Commented Jul 19, 2017 at 20:05

    Luckily they are very cheap ... better luck next time Commented Jul 19, 2017 at 20:09
  • Thanks. Yes, they are affordable. By the way, I was connecting it hundreds of times properly, tested hundreds of programs, but at some point I just got tired, started to be careless and making mistakes. Then it happened. Commented Jul 19, 2017 at 20:11
