Abstract

A tool for extracting an integrated circuit package from a circuit board is disclosed. The tool has provision for converting a user applied compressive force into two components. One component actuates apparatus for grasping the underside of the circuit package while the other component produces a nearly uniform perpendicular force on apparatus which straddles the circuit package to effect the extraction.
