Component-level Repair
Component-level repair refers to the process of repairing or replacing individual components on an electronic device or circuit board, rather than replacing the entire assembly or device. It focuses on fixing or replacing specific faulty components that are causing the malfunction, which can include parts like resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits (ICs), connectors, or other discrete electronic elements.
- Cost Efficiency: By replacing only the faulty components, you often save money compared to
replacing the entire board or device - Environmental Impact: Component level repair is more environmentally friendly as it reduces electronic waste. Instead of discarding the entire board, you only replace the defective parts.
- Faster Turnaround Time: Since only one component is being repaired or replaced, the process is often faster than diagnosing and fixing issues at the board level. This leads to quicker turnaround times for devices that need repair.
