      I just bought a TOF unit sensor. I ran the test example on it. I see the distance value jumping around. It says on the M5Stack.com TOF site, that if the performance of the TOF is unreliable, one needs to bypass the two MOSFETs. I opened up mine and see that mine has not been modified. However, in the TOF site, it has I cannot use 5V on the Grove port. I assume it is saying this because the MOSFETs would not be there. How do I get 3.3 V to this unit I'm using a M5Go.

        The tof units have a regulator that converts the 5v down to 3.3v
