What This ECCN Covers

ECCN 3D005 controls "software" specially designed to restore normal operation of a microcomputer, "microprocessor," or microcomputer system after an interruption, as defined in the entry — for example certain radiation-hardening/recovery software. It is controlled for National Security and Anti-Terrorism reasons.

Who needs to check this?

Developers of fault-recovery and radiation-tolerance software for microprocessors used in harsh or high-reliability environments.

Compliance tip

Confirm the software performs the specific recovery function the entry describes. Verify the §734.7 "published" exclusion for any publicly available code, and check the NS and AT Country Chart columns before relying on a license exception.
