Add a push-button power interface to an embedded assembly with this USB-C Soft Power Switch. A press powers the system on, while a host microcontroller can coordinate shutdown after another press. Holding the button for about ten seconds forces power-down, and onboard LEDs provide input and output status feedback.
Before you buy
Review host feedback wiring, load limits and the required shutdown behavior before integration.
