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...

What is Hardware

1st question which arise in our mind what is Hardware & what is Software?  Answer is simple , In information technology (IT) Hardware is the physical aspect of computers, telecommunications & other devices In other words simply the physical parts of a computer is called hardware , Like Motherboard, RAM, Hard disk, etc. these hardware when inter connected with each other they create a platform where logical part (software) of the computer runs. Without physical part logical part can't work.Both the physical parts & logical parts when work together called computer. Physical parts of computer :- Motherboard Processor RAM Hard disk SMPS Optical Drive Display Devices. 1))  Motherboard :-   A motherboard is the main Printed circuit board (PCB) in a computer. This Board is central communications backbone connectivity point, through which all components & external peripherals connect. Motherboards are classified by their design Like ...
