Tariff classification
HTS codes: 9030.82.0000
Headings: 9030
Product description
The test burn-in test systems model AF8641 and AF8642 are used to test the functions of semiconductor memory chips. The memory chip is mounted on a performance board which is connected to a pattern generator and power supply. The computer will control the pattern generator to test the performance of the memory chip. The chamber which surrounds the performance board provides an environment for testing the chips under both high and low temperatures. The AF8641 is capable of testing from room temperature to 150 C., while the AF8642 ranges from minus 10 to 150 C.
CBP rationale
The applicable subheading for the AF8641 and AF8642 will be 9030.82.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other instruments and apparatus for measuring or checking semiconductor wafers or devices.
