Power connectors on motherboard

POWER CONNECTORS:-

Most important part of a motherboard is power connector. Without these connectors system will not run.
These power connectors are different type & size in different motherboard. These connectors have 8 pins to 48 pins for different voltage, (this topic we will cover in our SMPS session)
On the motherboard two power connector mainly found ,
1)) 20 pin or 24 pin connector
2)) 4 pin connector

EXPANSION SLOTS & BUSES

COMPONENTS OF A MOTHERBOARD 2// EXPANSION SLOTS & BUSES:->     The most visible Parts of any motherboard are " Expansion Slots ". These look like small plastic slots, usually from 1 to 6 inches long & approximately 1/2 inch wide. As their name suggests, these slots are used to install  various devices in the computer to expand its capabilities. some expansion devices that might be installed in these slots include Video, Network, Sound, & Disk interface Cards.     If you look at the motherboard in your computer, you will more than likely see one of the main types of expansion slots used in computers today. PCI AGP PCIe AMR CNR Each type of slots differs in appearance & function. In this session we will learn how to visually identify the different expansion slots on the motherboard. * PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect)       Today's most of the motherboards contain 32 bit (PCI) slots. The...

CPU/Processors Slots/Sockets

CPU / Processors Slots & Sockets:- The " Brain "of any computer is the CPU "Central Processing Unit". There is no computer without CPU. There are different type of processors are used in computers from the beginning,(we will discuss about them later in other post)different type of processor means different type of slots/sockets which is present on the motherboard.  Sockets & slots on the motherboard are almost as plentiful & as processors. Sockets are basically flat & several rows of holes or pins arranged in a square. Sockets are of two types PGA & LGA . PGA sockets has holes to receive the pins on the processor, Where as LGA has spring-loaded pins in the socket & a grid of lands on the processor. The LGA is a newer technology that places the delicate pins on the cheaper motherboard, not the more expensive processor, opposite to the way the aging PGA does.  The device with the pins has to be replaced if the pins become too damaged t...

COMPONENTS OF A MOTHERBOARD(CHIPSETS)

In this session we will learn & know about the Components of a Motherboard, Where it placed on the motherboard, Which function they are performed & how to interact with other components as well as other hardware. To each components deeply first thing we must know is "Bus" architecture.     {{ Many components of a computer system work on the basis of         a "bus". A "bus",in the sense,is a common collection of           signal Pathways over which related devices communicate           within the computer system.        Expansion buses of various architectures,such as PCI &           AGP, incorporate slots at certain points in the bus to           allow insertion of external devices, or adapters,into the         bus, usually with no regard to which adapters are ...
