is there a cheap and widely available version of this? https://www.coolgear.com/product/usb-c-usb-b-power-delivery-adapter-wmounting-kit
use case:
—power a USB-C PD device at >5V
—and access it as a USB device over the same USB-C port

  @mntmn Whats the use case there? I would just use a USB PD supply. No active parts needed other than a second USB-C port

  @yeswap but does this supply the host with PD or the (other) USB-C device?

  @mntmn Some USB-C hubs support PD. See https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerExpand-Ethernet-Delivery-MacBook/dp/B08C9HZ5YT

  @timonsku so i had a barrel jack, but replaced it with a simple usb-c pd input. now i thought, it would be nice to have debug uarts available on that same port. but then it can't be charged at the same time because it needs >5V to charge. so one would need a usb host with >5V, i.e. a USB-C host with PD source.

  @timonsku @mntmn you mean like this ^^ https://github.com/Jana-Marie/PD-Injector not sure if the USB 3.0 lanes work though, they might be flipped, USB2.0 + PD works great

  @mntmn maybe https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-husb238-usb-type-c-power-delivery-breakout/pinouts ?
  Has the D+/D- broken out. 🤷 Can 3D print a case (design linked off that page I believe.)

    The HUSB238 USB PD sink chip is neat in that you can either use jumpers (really, resistor selection) to set the desired PD voltage and current or you can use I2C for dynamic querying and setting. We've built a nice Adafruit USB Type C Power Delivery Dummy Breakout board around the HUSB238 to make it very easy to configure and integrate without having to solder any tiny resistors.

  @mntmn
  Perhaps look for C hubs or docking units (fancy hubs) that advertise they support charging. I have a monitor that does what you want but not so portable.
