    Abstract: An example tool for disconnecting a connector from a circuit board includes: a first arm having first handle and a first notch, where the first notch is for engaging a first connector connected to the circuit board; and a second arm having a second handle and a second notch, where the second notch is for engaging a second connector connected to a cable. A hinge connects the first arm to the second arm. The hinge is biased so that, when the tool is not in use, the first handle and the second handle are farther apart than are the first notch and the second notch.
