ELECTRIC SOLID-STATE DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR

Introduced: January 2023

Classification Context

Section:: ELECTRICITY
Class:: SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES; ELECTRIC SOLID-STATE DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR
Subclass:: ELECTRIC SOLID-STATE DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR

Description

H10N covers electric solid-state devices that do not fit within more specific semiconductor device classifications in the H10 section. This subclass serves as a residual category for emerging or unconventional solid-state electronic devices, including novel device architectures and technologies that lack dedicated classification codes elsewhere. It captures innovations in solid-state technology that fall outside traditional semiconductor categories (diodes, transistors, integrated circuits) but are not adequately addressed in other H10 subdivisions.

Scope Notes

Glossary: active material active materials material within which the physical effects that are characteristic of the device occur | Application references: Measurement of mechanical vibrations or ultrasonic, sonic or infrasonic waves Measuring electrical or magnetic variables
