[sdiy] SSM2164 protection

[Oscar Salas]

Hello Tim, Mankato is great and 2164 also. I think that we are not discusing about that.
The issue is that if negative rail faults, the 2164 burns. It is a fact.

Could you please make a test? Could you cut the negative rail on one of your mankatos and see if 2164 burns? If not, wich resettable fuse do you use?
