PBS Switch Debouncing by 555

This circuit will remove the transient spikes and contact bounces from a non-latching push button switch.
Using a 555 timer as a monostable circuit, it is easy to build a good switch debouncer circuit. There are many circuits for SPDT debouncing, but not many for a normally open, push-to-make press button switch (PBS). The 555 monostable gives an output pulse of around 20 msec with component values shown. The formula for determining the output pulse is:
tout = 1.1 R1 C1
