I just received a PGM-11801, Tiny AVR Programmer. Plugged in an attiny85, stuck it into a USB port, configured the driver/board/etc. Uploaded a sketch with an LED blink on pin 0. Voila! It worked. Then I started building the rest of the 9v circuit to power a solenoid and I accidentally plugged ~9v+ into the vin pin of the AVR while it was still on the programmer. Then... a teenie tiny puff of smoke and a really fast disconnect of the power. Now when I plug in the programmer to USB and try to upload a sketch, Arduino IDE gives me this error: "avrdude: Error: Could not find USBtiny device (0x1781/0xc9f)"
Feels like I bricked the programmer. But could it be something else?
Thanks!
