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...

Generation of computer

GENERATION OF COMPUTERS       An Idea which inspired to create a different type of calculating machine was came from an ancient device named ABACUS.ABACUS is a simple calculating table which is used to perform simple calculation at that time       ABACUS The first electronic computer was designed & built at the university of Pennsylvania based on vacuum tube technology. Vacuum tubes were used to perform logic operations & to store data. Generations of computers has been divided into five categories according to the development of technologies used to fabricate the Processors, Memories & I/O units.      1st Generation :- 1945 - 1955                    {ENIAC - Electronic Numerical Integrator & Calculator                     EDSAC - Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator           ...
