Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

9002.20Lower: 10% vs 50%

If mounted in optical instrument filters

Optical elements assembled with photosensitive chips classify under 9002 for lenses and filters.

8541Same rate: 50%

If LED chips rather than photosensitive detectors

Light-emitting diodes, even unmounted, go to 8541.40, distinct from light-detecting photosensitive devices.

8548.00.00.00Lower: 35% vs 50%

If spent or waste semiconductor wafers

Non-usable wafers from testing classify as electrical waste under 8548/8549 notes.
