@teastain Today I will try connecting up the 5V piece to it . Thanks for the help

@teastain Gotcha so If I give 5v to the 5V connecter the bottom 5v connecter will output 5V (I am rereading this and god I hope you understand that.) and the ir sensor is a HC-SR501

@teastain I have it powered off of the 3v3 connector, and its an IR sensor to detect motion. operation voltage of 5V-20V.

@teastain gotcha, so I need to find another way to power the sensor.

@teastain Got it, I soldered a lead to the 5V connector in the picture, but it wasn't supplying power, so I thought the bottom one would be no different. Also I bought mine in a pack of 5 so it does not come with one.

@teastain No, the pico mini

@teastain Thanks can I solder directly to the 5v connector at the bottom of the stamp or do I need the groove connector for that?

Is there any way to get the 5V connecter to supply power to a motion sensor using the M5Stamp?

@robski I have tried it with a different usb to ttl bridge with the same results, and m5burner gives me the exact same error as arduino IDE

@ajb2k3 Yes I have with no similar luck

Hey after a while for a new one to come in that seems to be the case, but now I seem to be running into a new error.

WARNING: Failed to communicate with the flash chip, read/write operations will fail. Try checking the chip connections or removing any other hardware connected to IOs.
Configuring flash size...

and I have reinstalled the drivers almost 10 times at this point. I tried it on different computers and also trying different operating systems. I also tried different ports on those computers.

I recently purchased an M5Stamp Pico and a USB to TTL converter from Amazon. The converter uses the CP2102 chip. I connected the 3.3v, TX, RX, and ground pins, and shorted the ground to G0. However, Windows does not recognize the USB board. I have attempted to download various drivers for the CP2102 chip, but none have resolved the issue. Can someone please give some advice to get the board to function?
