8533.21.00.70 - Other

This HTS category, 8533.21.00.70, covers "Other" fixed electrical resistors designed for a power handling capacity not exceeding 20 watts, and which are part of a resistor network having more than two leads. These resistors are typically integrated into electronic circuits to control current flow and voltage levels. The designation "Other" signifies that this subcategory encompasses resistor networks that do not fall under the more specific classifications of single-in-line (SIP) or dual-in-line (DIP) resistor arrays.

The key distinguishing feature of this category is the absence of a standardized physical arrangement, such as the linear rows of leads found in SIP and DIP configurations. Instead, these "Other" resistor networks might feature custom lead placements, multiple unconnected resistors within a single package, or other unique arrangements designed for specific circuit board layouts or functionalities, all while maintaining a total power handling capacity of 20 watts or less and possessing more than two external connections.

As this is a terminal category within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification into this code hinges on the comprehensive assessment of the resistor network's power rating (not exceeding 20W), the number of leads (more than two), and its form as a resistor network that does not conform to the specific physical layouts of SIP or DIP components.
