Hello, I am currently doing a research project for my university making robots, and I'm trying to get a range finder so it won't run into walls. I bought this:

And the problem is that when the sensor is plugged in to the power, it freezes the chip (even with a capacitor). I don't exactly know what's going on with the chip, I just know that it stops whatever it's doing until the sensor is unpluged, and it will then go back to execution wherever it was.
Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thanks.
