CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

Designing a soft latching power switch for a battery-powered ATtiny85 development board.

Key decisions

  • Use P-channel MOSFET for high-side switching
  • Momentary pushbutton to initially turn on
  • Microcontroller holds power via N-channel MOSFET latch

When to reuse this

Battery-powered embedded systems requiring a soft power switch with microcontroller-controlled shutdown.
