I’ve downloaded the blink example using something like this. Directly after flashing it worked, but once I disconnected the flashing adapter […]

I’ve run the power supply under load. As you can see I’ve not yet removed the screen protector foil from my multimeter connected the cables in the wrong direction so the current is negative load current @ Vout=5V [A] The load was a florist wire that accidentally had the correct length to have a resistance […]
