Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the wafer is processed into integrated circuits
Processed wafers with complete circuit functionality fall under electronic integrated circuits.
If the wafer contains diodes rather than transistors
Diodes are classified separately from transistors under the semiconductor devices heading.
