When you say died, do you mean no power or no cool air.
As others have said, my AC has a float switch which will shut the unit completely down if the drain for the condensed water clogs up. This switch looks like a small pill bottle on the outside of the AC where the water exits to the drain line. If you pull that switch out and see water , that might be the problem. Clearing the drain line could be a larger problem. I use a garden hose with a small section with the end cutoff and stuffed in the drain line as far as possible . I tape it to minimize leakage and turn on the water . That blows my line clean.
Hopefully your stoppage is something simple like this. May not be since you say it happened coincident with brownout issue. Good luck.
