hello,
i am currently using a linear regulator with a bunch of diodes and resistors to obtain a "soft" on/off power switch functionality. this is done by controlling the EN pin of the regulator from the push button and later the MCU. this circuit works but i would like to reduce the part count and board space and am looking for a regulator or other IC that does this. does TI have any such "soft" on/off switch IC?
thanks,
