Abstract:
A control circuit is provided. The control circuit includes a load switch, and a controller configured to transfer a turn-on signal which is increased step by step to the load switch, and perform a soft start operation which turns on the load switch. In response to the load switch being turned on, the control circuit restricts an inrush current flowing in the load switch.
