Hello, try to check (for example) ST L9935 (http://www.stm.com/stonline/products/literature/ds/5198.pdf). We used these IC's in some automation appz. There are no "ideal" - but features you may need to look for:

- delayed channel switch (reduces peak)

- controlled VOUT slope (minimized EMI)

- shortcut prodection

etc... Depends on requirements.
