Hi all,
I just finished 6 3886 PCB's from chipamp.com.

a few days ago I started connecting things up. when 3 PCB's where mounted and connected i decided to test these.
connected mains and nothing happened (this is good i thought)
when measuring the DC on output I have 7 mV on one channel, but 24 Volts (!) on the other two plus really hot chips (they started smelling, no smoke)

I disconnected everithing, checked the connections and resistor values, everithing seems to be OK.

could these be faulty chips? is there any way to find out what could be wrong?

I also checked the power supply's but this is all fine..
I did a search and found a few threads describing this, but could not find much help in there..

many thanks for your help..
