#114608 - that wasn't the point, Suresh
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I didn't intend to imply that you had to have a very fast processor, but, rather, that one benefit of using an integrator was that it made the duration of the bounces secondary in importance.

As I stated, you'll have one slope, presumably very close to zero, while the relay is open. Then, some time after you turn on the driver, the reed will "make" for the first time, which will allow current to flow into the integrator, raising its voltage. This will continue as the bounces become shorter and shorter, until, finally, there is a steady current flow into the integrator, which will be at the maximal rate at which it charges. So long as the ramp during the bounce is smooth enough, you needn't worry about missing any bounces, since you're not looking for them, but the slope should be "different enough" from the full-rate when the switch is no longer bouncing, that you can clearly recognize it by comparing successive deltas.

BTW, what's a 60386?

            Of course its a good idea ;-)            01/01/70 00:00      
               also..            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Rather redrawing, i prefer ...            01/01/70 00:00      
   Schematic is incomplete            01/01/70 00:00      
      Simple way            01/01/70 00:00      
   I would do it like that            01/01/70 00:00      
      detecting end of bounce?            01/01/70 00:00      
         Much simpler            01/01/70 00:00      
            this is all getting complicated            01/01/70 00:00      
               there may be definition problem here            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Thanks Richard            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Question and answer            01/01/70 00:00      
                     You're right, of course            01/01/70 00:00      
                        They tell it here            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Yes, it's pretty complete.            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Form A            01/01/70 00:00      
                     More sophisticated? Maybe not.            01/01/70 00:00      
                        OK brass tacks            01/01/70 00:00      
                           that's the basic idea            01/01/70 00:00      
                              60386 processor            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 that wasn't the point, Suresh            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    resolution/max error using ralph            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       not so fast ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    reply            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Really?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          I doubted when i typed            01/01/70 00:00      
                                             and the manual is right! sorry.            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                Really?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                   correction            01/01/70 00:00      
                                                      There could be. But I made the mistake            01/01/70 00:00      
            Quantum flux compensator?            01/01/70 00:00      
               is it still April 1            01/01/70 00:00      
                  You are right but,            01/01/70 00:00      
               he means a flux capacitor ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  And I thought...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Compensator            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Translation            01/01/70 00:00      
            quantum flux capacitor?            01/01/70 00:00      
               language, culture            01/01/70 00:00      
                  reply : april 1!            01/01/70 00:00      
                     no, it was a natural response            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Ok Erik.            01/01/70 00:00      
                           The "Flux Capacitor" is from a movie            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Yes. to some extent!            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Never wanted to fool you!            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Obviously            01/01/70 00:00      
                           A joke and fooling someone is NOT the sa            01/01/70 00:00      
                              This made me think like that            01/01/70 00:00
