Briefly explain how button debouncing can affect the input read from Arduino. How is this problem defeated in software?

Step 1
This bouncing can cause multiple signals to be sent to the Arduino, which can result in incorrect readings or even multiple readings for a single press. Show more…

Many digital operations, including state machine inputs, operate based on switch states. Mechanical switches will often bounce, where they do not cleanly change state. The input, then, will oscillate between on and off during a transition before finally settling to its new value. This is sometimes benign, but it could also have serious consequences. There are several methods to avoid this behavior, called debouncing the input. Your homework is to write some code to ignore the temporary rapid state change of a switch. It does not need to be formally written in any language, but you need to write it in a series of steps, or "pseudo-code".

Write and execute programs using the external interrupts. When pressing the switch connected to PD0, a variable "count" is incremented. Pressing the switch PD1 decrements the "count" variable. Display the "count" variable on Port B. Use positive edge for incrementation and negative edge for decrementation. Microcontroller: ATMEGA2560 PORT B: LED PORT D: Switch
