I am considering to add a capacitor on a bistable mechanical switch in my NEStoXT adapter, but I am unsure what streinght the capacitors should be of.
The role of the capacitor is to reduce momentary noise the moment the switch is toggled. The switch is a standard open/close switch, and it "clicks" over quite signifficantly when toggeled.
The input of the switch is connected to ground directly, and the output is connected directly to the input of an open-collector buffer and to +5V through a 10K resistor.
I am considering to use a 0.1uF capacitor, but I am unsure if that it is sufficient.
