Rework (electronics)

Okay kiddo, so let's talk about rework in electronics. When you play with your toys, sometimes you might need to fix them or change something about them. That's kind of like what rework is in electronics!

Sometimes, when people make electronic things like phones or computers, they accidentally put something in the wrong place or the parts might get damaged. When that happens, they need to fix it! That's where rework comes in.

When someone does rework in electronics, they take out the part that's wrong or damaged and put in a new one. They use special tools like soldering irons to take out the old part and connect the new one in its place. It's kind of like when you use glue to fix a broken toy!

Doing rework is important because it helps make sure that electronic things work properly. If someone didn't fix the broken or wrong parts, the whole thing might stop working or not work as well as it could. So, by doing rework, people make sure that electronic things are working their best!
