Hi,

There are many reasons.

1.While testing /manipulating power and ground could have shorted.(If there are connectors , berg stick & jumper with power and ground this may occur)

2.Maintaining Proper common grounding(i have damaged cyclone iv with same issues there was a minor shock which i was filling when i touch the spacers of my board it was working fine after 2 day it got vcc and gnd shorted than after debugging power path, we have removed FPGA and tested and we found FPGA was damaged)
