(...) The actual source of bounce is NOT the arc just before contact. It actually is the bouncing of the contact due to the action of the spring in the contact! Well, if you were switching a really high voltage through a small switch, you would get (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) That obviously depends on what type of physical design is used for the switch. Some switches are not capable of bouncing the way you describe because there is no impact or acceleration during contact (example: slide switches that move leaf (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Any motion between two hard surfaces, including sliding metal on metal (often called contact wiping), creates intermittent contact that has to be "debounced". The only switches that don't bounce are mercury-wetted contacts, such as one used to find (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
