Overview
This HTS subcategory, 6909.19.10.00, specifically covers ferrite core memories. These are memory devices historically used in computing systems, constructed from ceramic materials (ferrite) that utilize magnetic properties to store digital information. The key characteristic is their composition and function as a data storage medium.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 6909.19.50 (Other), by its precise technical application. While both fall under "Other" ceramic wares for technical uses, 6909.19.10.00 is dedicated solely to ferrite core memories, a specific and somewhat specialized form of ceramic product. The sibling category would encompass other technical ceramic wares not fitting into the more defined subheadings.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is final at this level, focusing on the definitive identification of ferrite core memories made from ceramic materials. Therefore, the practical classification criteria revolve around confirming the material composition as ceramic (specifically ferrite) and the product's function as a memory device.
