TLC555: Generating off-delay time

Part Number: TLC555

Tool/software:

Dear TI,

I have a logic signal "power_on" which controls the EN input of a boost regulator IC as follows.

power_on EN boost regulator
low --> high low --> high off --> on
high --> low high --> (delay 3 sec) --> low on --> (delay 3 sec) --> off

Can the TLC555 be used for generating such power-off delays or would you recommend using some other IC? Is there some reference design I could refer to?

The application is smooth turn-off of high-power LEDs.

Thanks!
