I recently bought one of these: https://www.keymouse.com/keymouse-components/keymouse-mouse-sensor-module-3-0t with the hopes of interfacing it with a pro micro 5v.

I have it hooked up (5v to raw, all other pins matching on both devices), but whenever I power it on, the vcc rail gets pulled down to 0.7v, and the regulator on the pro micro gets hot. I am fairly certain that I've hooked this up correctly. I have tried this with 2 pro micros from different vendors now, with the same results, but without the sensor connected it works fine.

Do I need something else in between these? Is this board compatible with these type boards? https://www.tindie.com/products/jkicklighter/pmw3360-motion-sensor/ I kind of assumed that since both are spi, it would work. Plus yours is silkscreened with 5vdc, so I assumed it is doing the level shifting for the 3v3 pmw3360.

We have responded via email.

For those curious, the issue was that the pin labeling on the Mouse Sensor Module 3.0T was flipped and incorrect pins were connected. The labeling should be fixed in the next revision of the board.

Hello, I stumbled upon this thread while trying to use the sensors I purchased (2022-03), revision 3.0T
The boards I have use the same labelling as the following picture from the item page.

Current
GND
MOTION
CLK
MOSI
MISO
CS
5VDC

Is is possible to confirm that the correct labelling should be the following:
Correct
5VDC
CS
MISO
MOSI
CLK
MOTION
GND

Thanks for the help.

Yes. Connecting them opposite of the labelling fixed the problem.

Excellent! Thank you for the clarification.
I'm trying to build this. At least try to make the sensor work.
I made some advancement, but no success yet.

Did you manage to get it to work with your ProMicro?

Thanks
