Low voltage on STM32 F103x8

Hello

I have configured the TIMER3 to output PWM on PA6, PA7

I need the PWM to initialize a device which require PWM input.

First it worked fine, but on second day, the voltage of that pin dropped from 3V approx to 0.1V. I am able to see PWM at such low voltage  using oscilloscope, but my concern is regarding the voltage. How can I proceed further ?  I am not able to initialize my device at such low voltage. Is the pin damaged ?

Is the pin damaged ? 

Does it work if you disconnect the load? If still broken, yes you've probably burned things up, suggest you review the type of load you are driving, and if the current rating of the output meets that.

Hello, 

The pin is giving output pulse PWM but the voltage is 0.1 V on the oscilloscope. In the beginning it was 3.3V and then I connected a device. After that I removed the device and found the voltage went down to 0.1V.

What do you suggest to protect my new uC so that same thing don't happen to it ?
