Electrical apparatus; diodes, other than photosensitive or light-emitting diodes (LED)

HS v2017 Code: 854110

About electrical apparatus; diodes, other than photosensitive or light-emitting diodes (led)

hs code 854110 covers the import and export of electrical apparatus, specifically diodes that are not photosensitive or light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Diodes are essential electronic components that play a crucial role in various electronic devices and circuits. This industry is a vital part of the broader electronics and semiconductor sector, which is a key driver of technological innovation and economic growth worldwide.

Production process

The production of diodes covered under hs code 854110 typically involves a multi-step process. It begins with the fabrication of semiconductor materials, often silicon or germanium, which are then doped with impurities to create the necessary p-n junction. The semiconductor wafers are then cut into individual diode chips, which are then packaged and encased to protect the delicate components. Advanced manufacturing techniques, such as chemical vapor deposition and photolithography, are commonly used to ensure the precise control and quality of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of diodes under hs code 854110 include semiconductor materials, such as silicon and germanium, as well as specialized equipment and machinery for the fabrication and packaging processes. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce with expertise in electronics, materials science, and manufacturing processes. 851770 Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; sound recorders and reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts and accessories of such articles and 853400 (Electrical transformers, static converters (for example, rectifiers) and inductors) are among the key industries that provide essential components and equipment for the diode manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by hs code 854110 is diodes, which are used in a wide range of electronic devices and circuits. These diodes can be found in 854210 Electrical apparatus; transistors, other than photosensitive transistors, 854230 Electrical apparatus; thyristors, diacs and triacs, other than photosensitive devices, and 854240 (Electrical apparatus; photosensitive semiconductor devices, including photovoltaic cells whether or not assembled in modules or made up into panels; light-emitting diodes (LED)) industries, as well as in various consumer electronics, power supplies, and industrial control systems.
