Narrower than the label suggests. Reaches only articles containing a logic integrated circuit that meets the processing-performance and DRAM-bandwidth thresholds of U.S. note 39(b), with carve-outs for US data-centre use, repair, research, startups and public-sector use. Not a blanket duty on semiconductors, and it does not reach headings 8541, 8542 or 8486.
