Overview

This HTS classification covers specific light-emitting diode (LED) backlight modules designed for liquid crystal displays (LCDs). These modules are characterized by their construction, incorporating one or more LEDs and connectors mounted on a printed circuit or similar substrate. They may also include passive components, optical elements, or protective diodes, all serving the singular purpose of providing illumination for LCD screens.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 9405.41.84, lies in the specificity of the products described herein. While 9405.41.84 likely encompasses "other" photovoltaic LED light sources not precisely fitting the detailed criteria of this code, this subcategory is reserved for those modules explicitly designed and functioning as backlights for LCDs. The presence of the printed circuit board or substrate and the explicit function as an LCD backlight are key differentiators.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 9405.41.82.00 is final for products meeting the detailed description, emphasizing their role as dedicated illumination sources for liquid crystal displays. Careful consideration of the module's construction, including the substrate and integrated components, alongside its intended use, is crucial for accurate classification.
