QMK supports multiple debounce algorithms through its debounce API.
-The underlying debounce algorithm is determined by which matrix.c file you are using.

-| Not defined | You are using the included matrix.c and debounce.c | Nothing. Debounce_sym_g will be compiled, and used if necessary |
-| custom | Use your own debounce.c | ```SRC += debounce.c``` add your own debounce.c and implement necessary functions |

+**Regarding split keyboards**:
The debounce code is compatible with split keyboards.
# Use your own debouncing code
* Set ```DEBOUNCE_TYPE = custom ```.
* Add ```SRC += debounce.c```
-* Add your own ```debounce.c```. Look at included ```debounce_sym_g.c```s for sample implementations.
+* Add your own ```debounce.c```. Look at current implementations in ```quantum/debounce``` for examples.
* Debouncing occurs after every raw matrix scan.
* Use num_rows rather than MATRIX_ROWS, so that split keyboards are supported correctly.
# Changing between included debouncing methods
You can either use your own code, by including your own debounce.c, or switch to another included one.
Included debounce methods are:
-* debounce_eager_pk - debouncing per key. On any state change, response is immediate, followed by ```DEBOUNCE_DELAY``` millseconds of no further input for that key
-* debounce_sym_g - debouncing per keyboard. On any state change, a global timer is set. When ```DEBOUNCE_DELAY``` milliseconds of no changes has occured, all input changes are pushed.
