PD Buddy Sink

This is the circuit board for the PD Buddy Sink, a device which aims to make USB Power Delivery accessible to any electronics hobbyist.

The board is designed for 1 oz copper on all layers. 1.6 mm thickness should be fine. Just keep in mind that it isn't possible to assemble the board with a soldering iron anymore!

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 Programming jig PCB?

It measures 51.5 × 28 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Programming jig use?

9 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 Programming jig KiCad files?

From the psten/pd-buddy-sink repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is programming-jig/programming-jig.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Programming jig design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask psten before reusing the design.
