Hello, I'm currently working on my second portable and I wanted to challenge myself to make my own PCB's for this build. Basically I'm making a Wii portable and I want it to have a dock that has an HDMI out port on it. When the system is docked I want to turn the screen off and cut off all audio from the handheld itself. My idea I have to accomplish this is to just cut off the 3V3 power source to both the screen and the U-amp board that I am using but I'm having a little trouble designing a circuit that is normally closed and then becomes open when the system is docked.
Could I simply just use an N-channel depletion type mosfet for this purpose? I would have the 3V3 line going through the mosfet from source to drain and then when the system is docked a power line would come from the dock to activate the gate on the mosfet thus breaking the circuit to the U-amp. If I did do this, would I need any other passive components or would just a mosfet suffice?
And if the Mosfet thing wouldn't work, would an IC like the TPS2024 or BD82042FVJ work in it's stead?
Any help would really mean a lot as I don't have any experience in designing circuits and I've had a bit of a hard time figuring out this specific issue.
Also, here's the links to the 2 IC's mentioned above -
