#172926 - Debouncing
Responding to: Joel Ward's previous message
Joel Ward said:
The switch on bread board has the exact component values as that on the development board.

But the bounce characteristics of switches vary very widely.

Also, if your "breadboard" is one of those solderless block things, note that the reliability of those contacts is quite questionable.

I think your first step should be to implement a proper, reliable software debounce for your switches.
