The invention provides a method, apparatus and device for detecting an electronic component. The method comprises the steps of acquiring a component parameter of an electronic component to be detected, and acquiring a feature vector corresponding to the electronic component to be detected according to data distribution information of the component parameter; in a classifier library pre-built basedon historical electronic components, retrieving a target feature vector similar to the feature vector of the electronic component to be detected, and using a classifier corresponding to the target feature vector in the classifier library as a target classifier; and inputting the component parameter of the electronic component to be detected into the target classifier to acquire a detection resultoutput by the target classifier. According to the invention, the corresponding classifier is acquired for detection by the pre-built classifier library, the detection is performed directly using theclassifier built based on the historical electronic component data without using data of the electronic component to be detected for model training, a lot of time cost is saved, and the method, apparatus and device for detecting the electronic component are intuitive, effective and easy to use.
