Hi, I have just overclocked one of my usb asic miner v3 and when I connect it to the usb, the led does not light up or recognized by the pc. the BE100 chip gets hot 

Im using a 16 mhz oszillator and 1.2K on R1


I re soldered the crystal and checked for the direction and it was good. I also re soldered another resistor just to be sure, but its still not working.

I have tested it on a power supply which could go up to 5A, still the same thing.

Someone told me to measure resistance between the VCC and GND and it was 0.5ohms while on a working one it was 7.3ohms
 
What could the problem be (im thinking its the CP2102- its the one which handles the power, yes ?)

Any help would be much appriciated
