It can probably be implemented as:
u32 class : 9,
class_candidate : 9,
class_debounce_counter : 14;
9 bits accommodate the 256 possible classes + 'unclassified' that the
existing hardware can support (I doubt there will ever be this many
classes). The remainder bits can be used for debouncing, or even have
some reserved for future use.
Thanks and BR,
Ricardo
