Abstract
A circuit portion receives, at a synchroniser, a signal clocked at a first frequency and outputs a synchronised signal clocked at a second frequency to a bounce-rejection circuit portion. The bounce-rejection circuit portion operates on a plurality of successive samples of the synchronised signal and outputs an output signal. The bounce-rejection circuit portion: changes the output signal from a first value to a second value if a proportion of said plurality of successive samples having said second value is determined to meet a threshold, the threshold being greater than 50% of the plurality of successive samples; otherwise, it maintains the output signal at the first value.
