Bus interrupt debounce is described for in band bus interrupts on a one-wire serial bus between a host device and one or more subordinate devices. The host device includes a line driver configured to couple the host device to a one-wire serial bus and a controller. The controller is configured to receive an interrupt request on the one-wire serial bus from a subordinate device coupled to the one-wire serial bus, drive a first sequence of challenge pulses on the one-wire serial bus, receive a second sequence of challenge responses from the subordinate device on the one-wire serial bus in response to the challenge pulses, accept the interrupt request in response to receiving the second sequence of challenge responses, and start an interrupt arbitration for the one-wire serial bus in response to accepting the interrupt request.
