Hm, if i want 12 V from USB-C, I need some kind of PD-IC regulator, right? Like a tps25814 ?
I want to supply a circuit with just "dumb" 12 V, no extra USB-C features needed.

@werdahias if your power supply supports 12V over its type C port (should be written on it), then you only need a “PD trigger”, a little board or chip that tells the power supply what voltage to provide. They also sell cables that adapt type C to barrel jack and have built in trigger ICs.

@jaseg ah, I see. do you happen to know an example PD trigger IC? can't seem to find one, but rather a ton of boards which is not what I want.

@jaseg ah, ch244 seems to do it :) thanks

Seems now I must upstream this into #KiCad and create an open-hardware breakout board
