I usually set my sensors this way:

Brown and blue goes to power supply, this way I know my sensor have enough power to give me maximum sensing distance. Then I connect the black signal wire to an LM7805 pin 1, pin 2 goes to ground and pin 3 (regulated 5 volts) goes to signal pin on endstop connector.

There is a risk that if the regulator fails, the whole 12 volts will go to the board frying it, but it is minimal since usually when the regulator fails they stop supplying voltage and also the power consumption it so small that the regulator never get stressed enough to make it fail.
