| Notes |
| (1) | This subclass covers: |
| | electronic time-pieces with no moving parts; [3] |
| | electronic circuitry for producing timing pulses irrespective of the nature of the time-indicating means utilised. [3] |
| (2) | This subclass does not cover electronic time-pieces with moving parts, which are covered by subclass G 04 C. [3] |
1/ | 00 | Subject matter not provided for in groups G 04 G 3/00 to G 04 G 15/00 [3] |
3/ | 00 | Producing timing pulses (driving circuits for stepping motors G 04 C 3/14; producing preselected time intervals for use as timing standards G 04 F 5/00; pulse technique in general H 03 K; control, synchronisation, or stabilisation of generators in general H 03 L) |
3/ | 02 | . | Circuits for deriving low frequency timing pulses from pulses of higher frequency (pulse frequency dividers in general H 03 K 23/00 to H 03 K 29/00) [3] |
5/ | 00 | Setting, i.e. correcting or changing, the time-indication [3] |
5/ | 02 | . | by temporarily changing the number of pulses per unit time, e.g. quick-feed method [3] |

9/ | 04 | . | . | by controlling light sources, e.g. electroluminescent diodes [3] |
9/ | 06 | . | . | using light valves, e.g. liquid crystals [3] |
9/ | 08 | . | by building-up characters using a combination of indicating elements, e.g. by using multiplexing techniques [3] |
