Overview
This HTS category, 8524.11.10.00, encompasses flat panel display modules that utilize liquid crystal technology. These modules are designed for displaying visual information and are characterized by their thin profile. Crucially, this classification applies only to liquid crystal display modules that are *not* equipped with integrated driver or control circuits. This means the external circuitry for processing and delivering the image signals to the display elements is separate from the module itself.
This specific classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 8524.11.90.00, which covers "Other" liquid crystal flat panel display modules. The key differentiator lies in the presence or absence of integrated driver and control circuits. Category 8524.11.10.00 strictly covers those modules that require external control electronics, whereas the "Other" category would encompass liquid crystal display modules that do include these integrated circuits.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories branching from 8524.11.10.00. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code is on accurately identifying liquid crystal display modules that are supplied without their own internal driver and control circuitry, ensuring they are not intended for direct integration into the specific article types excluded by the parent description (e.g., certain televisions or monitors).
