E220 with Arduino Pro Micro and Step-down DC converter
Hi!
I'm new to E220 and trying to work with it using Arduino Pro Micro (5V). I've made connections as instructed here, but since Arduino Pro Micro doesn't have 3.3V output and I have few spare DC-DC step-down 3.3V converters, I added one to convert 5V to 3.3V (also instead of using 2k and 1k resistors, I used 1.8k and 3.6k which I found my storage box).
Unfortunately it seems that it doesn't work, error (12 - no response from device) is shown. When using the same E220 device with my another Arduino Pro Mini (3.3V) with more simpler connections, everything works smoothly. I've checked the connections and everything should be fine based on my understanding.
Here's the full trace:

Hi, I'm going to send message!

Is there possibility to debug what might be the problem? Or do you think that this step-down converter is for some reason anyhow bad idea?
Here's image of the connections if it helps anyhow.
