A dead MacBook doesn't have to mean a full board swap and lost data. We isolate the single failed component — a power-IC, a shorted port, a corroded trace — with schematic-referenced diagnostics, and repair at chip level so your soldered SSD stays untouched.

How we isolate the fault
Quick answer
Azizi Technologies repairs MacBook logic boards at chip level in Dubai — isolating and replacing the single failed component (power IC, Thunderbolt controller, corroded trace) instead of swapping the whole board, which keeps your soldered SSD data intact. Free diagnosis, 2-5 day turnaround, 90-day warranty on the repaired component.

What board-level repair actually involves
Current-limited power test
Bench PSU reveals a dead short instantly, without risking further damage to a live board.
Thermal imaging under load
A failing component often runs hotter than its neighbours — the camera finds it in seconds.
Schematic-referenced rail tracing
Multimeter tracing against the actual board schematic isolates the exact failed net, not a guess.
Component-level rework
Microscope-assisted micro-soldering to replace the one failed chip — capacitor, PMIC, controller.
Corrosion treatment first
Liquid-damage boards get ultrasonic cleaning before any rework, so corrosion doesn't return under a new part.
Data-recovery check before repair
We assess whether the soldered SSD is still readable before committing to a board repair path.
Chip-level repair vs a full board swap
| Chip-level repair (Azizi) | Full board swap | |
|---|---|---|
| Your soldered SSD data | Kept — board isn't replaced | Gone, unless recovered first |
| Typical cost | 60-80% less than a full board | Full replacement-board price |
| Vintage / discontinued models | Still repairable if parts exist | Apple often refuses obsolete boards |
| Turnaround | 2-5 days, complexity-dependent | Often 1-3 week parts wait |
| What's actually replaced | The one failed component | Every chip on the board |
