Hi there,

From the datasheet I see, that the Skywriter is powered by 3.3V via VCC - that works nice on an Arduino Nano. Because of reasons I am switching to the Pro Micro which in my case runs on 5V and there is no additional 3V supply.

Is VCC regulated onboard the Skywriter and it is safe to run it on 5V? Or should I use a voltage divider first?

I found in the forum, that someone is running the sensor on 5V, but I am curious whether that is out of specs, or not.

Best regards,
Frederik
