334
Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing
Analysis
NAICS 334 is the 2022 subsector for computer and electronic product manufacturing. Census lists 848 example activities under it in the official index.
County Business Patterns counts 11,262 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 815,444 people at an average annual payroll of $105,268 per employee (86th percentile of national industries). 32% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which is close to the national mix.
Across its national industries Census lists 848 index entries; typical ones are analog computers manufacturing, CD-ROM drives manufacturing, ATMs (automated teller machines) manufacturing and carrier equipment (i.e., analog, digital), telephone….
Its goods appear in 1050 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 9102 (wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches, including…), 8528 (monitors and projectors, not incorporating television…) and 9101 (wrist watches, pocket watches and other watches, including…). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.
It splits into 6 more detailed codes. The largest by establishments is 3345 (Navigational, Measuring, Electromedical, and Control Instruments Manufacturing) with 5,050.
Its more detailed codes are 3341 Computer and Peripheral Equipment Manufacturing (557 establishments), 3342 Communications Equipment Manufacturing (1,138 establishments), 3343 Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing (539 establishments), 3344 Semiconductor and Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (3,686 establishments), 3345 Navigational, Measuring, Electromedical, and Control Instruments Manufacturing (5,050 establishments) and 3346 Manufacturing and Reproducing Magnetic and Optical Media (292 establishments).
Official definition
Industries in the Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing subsector group establishments that manufacture computers, computer peripherals, communications equipment, and similar electronic products, and establishments that manufacture components for such products. The Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing industries are combined in the hierarchy of NAICS because of their economic significance to the economies of all three North American countries. For industries in this subsector, the manufacturing processes are fundamentally different from the manufacturing processes of other machinery and equipment. The design and use of integrated circuits and the application of highly specialized miniaturization technologies are common elements in the production technologies of the Computer and Electronic Product Manufacturing subsector.
