Alternative Classifications

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

8542.32.00Same rate: 50%

If flash memory (electrically erasable)

Flash EPROMs use electrical erasure, classifying under different EPROM subheading 8542.32.0084

8473.30.11.80Same rate: 50%

If part of complete computer assembly

EPROMs pre-installed in motherboards or systems classify as computer parts under 8473 rather than separate ICs

8548.00.00.00Lower: 35% vs 50%

If in wafer/die form, not packaged

Unpackaged semiconductor dice fall under electrical parts of 8548, while packaged ICs are 8542
