desoldered
Melted connection undone
Desoldered is the past tense of desolder, meaning to remove solder from an electronic connection, typically to detach a component from a circuit board.
The process usually involves heating the joint until the solder melts and can be wicked away or sucked off: I desoldered the faulty capacitor and replaced it.
