I have arduino Uno and arduino Micro that I'm working with (on to diffrent projects).
I'm working with 5v power supply for the motors.
Is there any way to supply 5v to the arduino Uno/ Micro and keep it stable?
I read that suppling 5v to the 5v pin is an option, but in Uno it is not recommended.
Is it possible to do with the Micro?

Thank you all!
I don't have a micro, so won't comment on it, but there's nothing wrong with providing 5V directly to a UNO 5V pin, as long as you don't have a load connected to the Vin pin.
You say "keep it stable". You need to connect a "stable" 5V to the pin. It's not a matter of connecting 5V then keeping it stable. You ideally want 5V from a regulator, so there's no chance of the voltage exceeding 5V.
I almost always connect 5V directly to the UNO 5V connection. I power a breadboard with 5V, then take power from it to power the UNO, rather than the other way around.
