What is component level repair?

Component level repair is the process of diagnosing and fixing faults in individual electronic components on a circuit board, rather than replacing the entire board or device. Technicians performing this work use specialized tools and knowledge to identify defective resistors, capacitors, chips, or other components and replace them as needed. This approach can save money and reduce electronic waste, making it a valuable skill in electronics repair and maintenance.

What is the difference between Component Level Repair vs Electronics Technician?
