I am aware of USB C Power Delivery trigger boards that uses PD protocol to output the desired voltage from a PD source. But I was curious if it would be possible and feasible to design and integrate a USB C Power Delivery protocol into a PCB design. If I were to do it, how difficult would it be and what would I need to know? Thanks.

    Yes it would be feasible, since the boards you have do it. You could buy the same USB-PD controller IC and put it on your board, or use one of various designs online. – user1850479 Dec 08 '19 at 03:17
  • It's complicated; think a whole engineering project's worth. Start with https://www.google.com/search?q=implementing+usb+power+delivery and choose someone's docs to read and parts to consider. – user2943160 Dec 08 '19 at 05:04
  • You would likely want to use a USB-PD IC plus a micro-controller with a library to support that particular chip. Suggest you look for an eval board to start. – Spehro Pefhany Dec 08 '19 at 05:25
  • With modern ic chips, this is not a hard problem to solve... – MadHatter Dec 08 '19 at 18:59
  • You need to integrate the "power delivery trigger board" electronics into your PCB project. All answers/variants are given here, https://electronics.stackexchange.com/q/361391/117785 – Ale..chenski Dec 09 '19 at 05:59
