Hello,

I was having an issue where every once a while the thermal scene would become impressed into the viewing area affecting temperature readings and making the image quite messy.

I'm also realising the shutter is not closing anymore, which makes me think the camera is taking it's blank (regulating?) image with it's shutter open.

As I'm still trying to figure out if it's the driving circuit for the shutter on the pcb or the lepton itself, are there any resources/schematic of 

I'm attaching an example screenshot of a 'blank' scene resting the camera face down on my desk with the overimposed image, and a thermal 'selfie' showing what looks like a 5 pin IC becoming hot on the Tcam mini pcb (it's definitely above 40C from the touch, I wouldn't take the camera measurement as reliable)

Cheers
