  • Motherboard Components Details Pdf
    Motherboard components details pdf Continue The main printed circuit board (PCB) for computing devices for other purposes, see Motherboard (disambiguation). A motherboard for a desktop personal computer showing the typical components and interfaces that are on the motherboard. This model corresponds to the microATX form factor, the overall motherboard layout used in many desktops. The motherboard (also called the main board, main printing board, system board, skirting board, plank, logic board and mobo) is the main printing board (PCB) in general computers and other expandable systems. It holds and allows you to communicate between many of the most important electronic components of the system, such as the CPU (processor) and memory, and provides connectors for other peripherals. Unlike a backplan, the motherboard typically contains significant subsystems such as a central processor, chipset I/O and memory controllers, interface connectors, and other components integrated for general use. Motherboard means, in particular, a PCB with expansion capabilities. As the name suggests, this board is often referred to as the mother of all the components attached to it, which often include peripherals, interface maps, and daughters: sound cards, graphics cards, network maps, hard drives, and other forms of permanent storage; TV tuner cards, cards providing additional USB or FireWire slots; and a host of other custom components. Dell Precision T3600 System Motherboard, used in professional CAD workstations. Manufactured in 2012 in a similar way, the term mainboard describes a single- board device and without additional extensions or features such as control boards in laser printers, televisions, washing machines, mobile phones and other built-in systems with disabilities.

This presentation will assume that you know nothing about computer hardware. It will also assume you are all very fast learners. 0.2 The Apple II Lesson. If you want people to really understand computers they must become familiar with it. See the Apple II Users Manual. 0.2 “Yield To The Hands On Imperative”. Part of the Hacker Ethic, with sharing, collaborating and building. Steven Levy, Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution, (1984). It is part of the GNU/Linux tradition. System Unit and Standard Peripherals 1.1 The System Unit. The system unit contains the power supply, motherboard, CPU, RAM, hard disk, peripheral controllers 1.2 Standard Input and Standard Output. Refer to the basic input (typically the keyboard and mouse) and output devices (the monitor); in operating system terms is also refers the preconnected input and output channels between a computer program and its environment. 1.3 Redirection. In a GNU/Linux operating system standard input, output and error streams can be redirected to a file, device etc. The Case/Chassis and Power Supply 2.1 The Case/Chassis. The case or chassis is the box that houses the motherboard, power supply and other components of the system unit. Three main styles; desktop, tower and mini. 2.2 Power Supply. The power supply provides the necessary voltage for operation to the motherboard with leads to requisite components (hard disk drive, DVD).
