DESCRIPTION
National Semiconductor DM8544N TRI-STATE quad switch debouncer in a 16-pin molded dual in-line package. The photographed unit carries the National Semiconductor logo with the I8227 and DM8544N markings. A light-colored stripe of residue is visible across the pin 1 end of the package; see photos.

Features:
Four switch debouncer channels in one package.
TRI-STATE outputs.
TTL logic family.
Designed for front panels and similar applications where switch contact bounce must be eliminated.
16-pin molded DIP for through-hole mounting.

Compatibility:
Direct replacement for DM8544N and DM8544 in boards designed for the DM8544 pinout. Common in front-panel switch inputs on vintage test equipment, instrumentation, and industrial controls.

Q&A:
Q: What does the DM8544 do?
A: It removes contact bounce from mechanical switches so each press produces a single clean logic transition.

Q: What is the difference between the DM7544 and DM8544?
A: They are the same function in National Semiconductor's DM7544/DM8544 family. The DM7544 is the military-temperature version and the DM8544 is the commercial version.

Q: What does I8227 mean?
A: 8227 is the date code (1982, week 27).

Troubleshooting:
Check the supply voltage at the VCC and ground pins.
If outputs float, check the TRI-STATE enable input.
Confirm switch wiring matches the datasheet connection diagram.
Compare input and output states against the datasheet function table.
