Abstract
A device having a memory configured to store information indicating debounce times for the device's switches and having circuits configured to determine whether the switches are depressed and closed based on the debounce times. The debounce times are updated based on the age of the device and/or switch usage. The method for debouncing may be performed by a computer having computer-readable media directed to adjusting the debounce times based on the age of the device containing the switches.
