Overview
PD Injector is an open-source printed circuit board by Jana-Marie, from the Jana-Marie/PD-Injector repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 16.9 × 25 mm with 6 parts on 34 nets, routed with 173 tracks and 56 vias.
Its parts include 3 connectors and 2 resistors. It belongs with the power boards of this library.
README
README.mdPD-Injector
This is a USB power delivery Power/Data injector. It has PCB USB-C input sockets and one output plug, the data lines from one input and the power lines from the other are combined and present at the output. Therefore you can have a data connection from your (not PD capable) computer, while having power from a power supply.
The PCB should be ordered with a thickness of 0.6mm so the on PCB sockets fits USB-C cables. For the USB-C plug, any Board Edge connector should work e.g. Molex 1054440001
Please be aware that DP Alt mode does not work as it requires the CC lines which are routed to the PD supply.
This repo is forked from the PD Buddy Wye.

Original README:

Power/data splitter for PD Buddy Sink.
This PCB must be 0.6 mm thick so the USB Type-C card edge receptacles work. Copper thickness can be 1 or 2 oz, ENIG finish preferred.
The PCB is made with KiCad, so you'll need that if you want to make any changes. Several PCB fabricators accept KiCad PCB files directly now, but if you intend to order from one that does not, you'll need KiCad to plot the Gerbers.
KiCad 4 supports loading footprint libraries from Git repositories, but its
support for doing the same with symbol libraries is lacking. To address this,
I added the variable _KI_LIB_GIT. Set this path in the main KiCad window
(Preferences > Configure Paths) to point to a local copy of the
kicad-library repository to ensure that you're using the latest schematic
libraries.

Questions
How big is the PD Injector PCB?
It measures 16.9 × 25 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.6 mm thick.
What parts does the PD Injector use?
6 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the PD Injector KiCad files?
From the Jana-Marie/PD-Injector repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PD-Injector.kicad_pcb and its schematic PD-Injector.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the PD Injector design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Jana-Marie before reusing the design.
